Colordrops said, "The Thailand story was a cover." This is the allegation. Not that the NSA bought a lot of drives and kept it secret, but that this purchase alone rather than the floods were responsible for the drive storage, and the flood story was fabricated. That is the alleged conspiracy.

I find that a number of conspiracy theories are 'debunked' by creating an obviously ridiculous strawman/rendition of the theory that nobody actually claimed.
Also counspiracy nutcases are a conspiracy to hide conspiracies by ridiculing.
