Crazy true story: ANOM. Engineers thought they were building a totally above-water secure corporate internal messaging app and service. Actual users and customers were mostly organized crime. Unbeknownst to anyone byut the founder and their lawyer, the whole thing was backdoored and all messages were forwarded in cleartext to the FBI (supposedly they started dark, got caught by the feds on something and struck a deal). They had an entire team of analysts with purpose-built tooling just to digest the material. Who knows what the same teams are working on today... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Trojan_Shield https://www.theverge.com/2024/5/23/24163389/joseph-cox-dark-... Put that next to the Snowden leaks and increasing global tensions - is the probability horizon widening? |
