My original comment was limited to adversaries with potential intercept capability.
If it is the case that we have to be concerned about a widespread intercept capability by those countries in the US then the intelligence agencies have completely failed in their mission to defend NATO countries.
China on the other hand, well we all outsource manufacture there.
Of course there are despotic regimes that also use torture. The point I was making is that alone in the free world the US administration decided to sanction war crimes and it appears from their choice of codenames that the people in charge of this program might be the type of people who put confederate flags on their cars.
So 'just trust us we are the good guys' does not have the same rhetorical force that it once did.
