The NSA worked on Windows 7 before its release

The recent testimony of Richard Schaefer’s to the Senate Judiciary’s
Subcommittee on Terrorism and Homeland Security reveals that the NSA
tinkered with Windows 7 before its release, it looks like one of the
biggest voyeur agencies in the World is not missing a single
opportunity to get its filthy pawns all over people’s operating
system.

Richard Schaefer, NSA Information Assurance Director quoted

“Working in partnership with Microsoft and elements of the DoD, NSA
leveraged our unique expertise and operational knowledge of system
threats and vulnerabilities to enhance Microsoft’s operating system
security guide without constraining the user’s ability to perform
their everyday tasks”

Wrong, they tinkered with it to help make it as secure as possible because
they want to use Win7 themselves so want it secure. There are no back doors
put in place by the NSA in any Microsoft OS so go put your tin foil beenie
on again and dream up another BS conspiracy that might catch me on a slow
day.

Filthy pawns? As opposed to what? Clean queens? Neat knights?

Clearly you posted that on one of your slow days.

Tinkering could have been done to their own versions of the OS, just like
previously. Suddenly they get to mess with the general release? Why, if all
they care about is their own security?

Why don't you dream up another BS theory yourself?
