"Trial by Google"? What the hell are you talking about? I merely asked where the quote came from, and observed that I first made an attempt to locate it on my own.


I take it you have now watched the video and concede that you are wrong.

I don't mean "it's open to interpretation" but I mean flat out wrong. The Guardian admitted it was not a PR stunt.

I accept your concession.


Well no, those are clearly the words of somebody who thinks to himself, "shit, did I just say that? Better deny it."

Let's be honest for a second: are you actually trying to discredit the NSA and GCHQ? Because behaving like a complete ass while defending them is a great way to do that.


You still think that they give a fuck?

I take your accusation of being an ass to mean "ZenPro is right, I cannot disprove him so I will now result to insults and ad-hominems."

Bore off.


I adore the common double standard, wherein making a statement like "I accept your concession" when both parties know that wasn't the intent is considered OK, but calling out that behavior is not.
