Heartbleed...

This is a rare moment in time where I don't know what to say.  I'm still deciding whether or not I'm being paranoid because of the heartbleed bug (yes I think the NSA planted it) and how disappointed I am as a result of it.

I shouldn't feel that way but I do.

I get why governments do things like that, but sometimes it's better not to know.  Deep down I really am an optimist and believing that my government could do something like that just crushes my belief in my country, the constitution and the ideals I always believed we stood for.  I do believe that the NSA has lost it's way.  I can only imagine what the overwhelming paranoia that must be pervasive in its employees is like.   Maybe Enemy of the State was more realistic than I thought.

I've had people say this is just the beginning too...
