NSA partners with Apache to release open-source data traffic program
- mindcrime 12y agoMore NSA technologies are expected to be open-sourced soon. After all, as the NSA pointed out: "Global reviews and critiques that stem from open-source releases can broaden a technology's applications for the U.S. private sector and for the good of the nation at large." I'm no fan of the NSA, but I am a fan of government (read: taxpayer funded) research and development being released as Open Source, so I consider this a mostly positive development, within the context of our current system.
