Excuse me? Your characterization is far off the mark, and your snark unappreciated. I was simply remembering that the government can and does lie, and that there we should remember the interests of the parties involved. It's not content free to observe this fact and to stress what we do and do not know.
If I had to change anything it would be the fact that they only signed up for an intercept mailing list using work email, not direct contact. I regret the error, I was going off what I read yesterday.
