Keeping in mind (memento mori) that life is, after all, a terminal illness (at least for the bag of meat-over-bones), does help keep one free of paranoia, although, for all I know, psychotropic medication may be necessary in your particular case.
Der Spiegel's recent exposé on NSA's elite hacker unit, TAO: [^].
Reportage on AP News:Quote: One of the most striking reported revelations concerned the NSA's alleged ability to spy on Microsoft Corp.'s crash reports, familiar to many users of the Windows operating system as the dialogue box which pops up when a game freezes or a Word document dies. The reporting system is intended to help Microsoft engineers improve their products and fix bugs, but Der Spiegel said the NSA was also sifting through the reports to help spies break into machines running Windows. One NSA document cited by the magazine appeared to poke fun at Microsoft's expense, replacing the software giant's standard error report message with the words: "This information may be intercepted by a foreign sigint (signals intelligence) system to gather detailed information and better exploit your machine." [^]
Why does the name "NewEgg" come to mind in this context, when reading (in the above) about how the NSA intercepts computer gear deliveries to install secret weirdness ?
“I'm an artist: it's self evident that word implies looking for something all the time without ever finding it in full. It is the opposite of saying : 'I know all about it. I've already found it.'
As far as I'm concerned, the word means: 'I am looking. I am hunting for it. I am deeply involved.'”

I guess the proper thing to say about NSA is where don't they look? I have a feeling nothing is sacred!

I have a feeling that: if anything is sacred, it would be the direct experience that nothing is sacred, but, I can't quite put my finger on it, since the act of observation changes it into something.
Happy New Year !

Was that originally written by someone named Heisenberg by any chance?

No, it was written by the overripe wetware-jelly analog computer in this sorry bag of meat-over-bones, whose linguistic japes are to Heisenberg's mentations as amoebae to spiral galaxies.
Werner did say: "Any concepts or words which have been formed in the past through the interplay between the world and ourselves are not really sharply defined with respect to their meaning: that is to say, we do not know exactly how far they will help us in finding our way in the world."

Nothing surprises me now days, fortunately I never send any of these crash reports to anyone...
|
|
|

Most of my crashes involve programs freezing up on rare occasions. On most incidents I fix the problem that started the crash so the NSA gets nothing. if I was an NSA hacker I would place a Trojan device driver on a users computer with a self-signed certificate or prebought certificate (to make the device driver look legit and so I have a secret backdoor). That way I have full access to a lot of computer information. Most operating systems have device drivers that operate at the kernel level allowing direct access to information. Without a pro coder once its installed it might be hard to get rid of too (depending on the operating system).
The only problem with this option is you need admin access which the user must give.
Another idea is the NSA needs to allow a user to become an informant. Also, someone who could verify information and if you fit the bill they inform you that your information is being used or seized by the NSA.

You don't need to include the zip-code, and you don't need to give your name or sign the message, or include your return address, because they know who you are and where you are, already.
Happy New Year !

Everyone dies with heart failure. A lot of times that's what is the reported cause because an investigation isn't deemed necessary. This seems like a case where this fits. The guy succeeded in his slow motion suicide.
