Conspiracy theory me says it was the NSA. From their home page warning.

> WARNING: Using TrueCrypt is not secure as it may contain unfixed security issues.

The phrase “not secure as” is interesting as the first letter spell out NSA.

Also, the first letters of "unfixed security" are "U.S." which could be another hint.

Plus, "Using TrueCrypt" -- "UTC". According to Wikipedia, UTC is "a successor to Greenwich Mean Time" -- Greenwich, London, England. GCHQ is in England! So, obviously, it was a partnership between NSA and GCHQ!

Surely we can come up with even more irrefutable evidence^W^Woutrageous theories if we devote a few minutes to it.
