Most HN users are quite upset in the comments under any story about any capabilities, by any organization anywhere in the world, and regardless of their cooperation with America (where the three letter organizations I quoted are from) and regardless of their legality.

I put in "backdoor found" as a search query here https://hn.algolia.com/ after modifying it to search the last year.

The first article I clicked had this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10889008

which says:

Isn't it clear that they don't want these agencies to be able to have the support of populations?

I don't think I overstate the case that most HN users are against surveillance and related capabilities by anyone.
