You think very highly of the NSA.
There's been plenty of "NSA-grade" exploits recently leaked, and they didn't seem significantly more complex than what jailbreakers use.

And I'm pretty sure what the apple developer who called the jailbreaks NSA-grade meant was that NSA was the pinnacle of professionalism.

I look forward to hearing about your contributions to the jailbreak community.

(I am pretty sure that person was not insulting what people in the jailbreak community do, but instead was poking at the idea of that Apple employee "shifting the blame" from "I can't believe that Apple managed to fix that wrong three times in a row... are they incompetent or something?"--a thought process we have all had about many of the bugs in dyld over the years ;P--to "damn those meddling kids and their stupid decompilers".)
It wasn't them who were sloppy programmers, it was the teenagers who were writing NSA-grade exploits... SMH Apple employees need a reality check...
