While there be any real consequences from the NSA leaks, or is

You mean the 2013 leaks or are there new ones already?

>>56131129
I mean these ones.

3 days ago NSA's spy tools were stolen of their Ops server and half of them are available for download on the Internet while the rest are up for ransom auction of 1 million bitcoins

Probably Russia and China will jerk off to that new informations about their enemy. Probably adapt their tools.

Some guys in the NSA will need to find a new job.

But otherwise, no.

>NSA fucking proven to be spying on everyone maliciously
>people still fucking deny it and call it tinfoil hat BS
America.

Nope. I'm almost positive this is a false flag attempt by members of our government to try and claim Russia is out to influence the elections. Look at the evidence, it's a few shitty exploits and a horrible attempt to sound like Russians with no english skills. I mean, come on. If I were trying to sell this shit, I'd at least drop one good exploit out there to give people a taste, show 'em I'm selling the good shit, not Aircrack-NG advanced edition.

Only because the NSA has cover agents shitposting non-stop on internet forums.

That is all they do to avoid being overthrown.

is the torrent safe to download? I can't help but think it would fuck me with ransomware

>>56131012
really harmful skiddies probably

>>56131706
The torrent isn't malware. You will go to PMITA prison for downloading it though.

>>56134278
definitely not safe for you.
You can't run these things on your daily desktop or download it directly to your house, is just common sense, I'm curious my self but aware enough not to even click things that may be considered weapons at some point, I'm not american or in the U.S., but IT concerning laws are still in gray areas, up to interpretation for non-technical people. A couple of days jailed by some technical misinterpretations is bad.

>>56134429
There are a bunch of bloggers analyzing everything in the dump. Nobody has been jailed yet.

Ok then.

Ask him if his < 2 bitcoins in ransom are enough to release the code yet.

Things will continue as they were before and are now for the foreseeable future. Some will advocate that the government should be overthrown but if such a thing does happen the communists will realize the libertarians are their enemy too and we'll have a classic 3 or 4-way civil war.

At most we might get some paper tape laws, like the CIA in the 70s, but they'll find a way to circumvent them and continue doing their job.

Just shows how incompetent and how much more of a danger the NSA is to the country rather than protecting them.

Spends billions of dollars on a spy network. Allows some 30 year old employee to leak info to press, 3 years later, gets hacked by some Russian guy in his moms basement selling their tools to anyone who wants them.

Cisco just got around to patching one of the bugs.

So the free FIREWALL files are the real deal.

Depends if the rumored list of countries targeted by the equation group turns out to be true, and if the claims of election tampering in said countries are true. Some of the countries rumored to be targeted are large western US allies.
