Do you recall the news that NSA (US Intel Agency) paid RSA (US security vendor) $10m go backdoor encryptions libraries?

If this was exposed once it’s happening elsewhere.

There was also the case of the NIST elliptic curve encryption best practices being subverted for NSA backdoors standard.

They’ve got a job to do. They’re doing it. But worth noting that a vendor could claim be pro privacy while also cooperating with their government.
