Or they have a bunch of qubits at their disposal :psyduck:
That'd be terrible if the first thing a practical quantum computer did was be used by the NSA to monitor personal and private info, god knows they have the inflated budget to afford it. Watch that happen now
If there was a backdoor in SSL, assuming it actually works that way (nahh), people would take notice pretty quickly
It's very unlikely they brute forced it, what they mean is that they most likely have found and are using some kind of vulnaribility in TLS and SSL, which there are some, such as CRIME.

Hopefully you will also see a full blown revolt in your lifetime as well, because that's the only way to remove the rogue government occupying the country right now. But we'll just sit around on our fat asses because it's too much of a hassle to get off them and take back the country.

Big deal, buy any chinese OEM product and it'll be so cheaply made that it won't include it.
Not to include just flashing it with linux/dd-wrt.
Next up, NSA rages on opensource apps that goes against this.
