Somehow I don't think you start out interning at an agency like the NSA

I don't know about the NSA, but at any major college in the country you can practically trip over intern-recruiters for the FBI and CIA.  They need a shitload of paperwork processed, and they're perfectly happy trading college credits and an impressive-sounding resume to get it done.

At RIT, the NSA guys typically come to recruit several times a year from our NSSA major.

Sweet. I (don't) look forward to appearing in your background checks. :|

Everybody say hi for the background checks!

Hi background check people! The bay12 WMDs are certainly not in Tellemurius' closet, so be sure you don't check there!

Well i heard a resume was a good idea so i already collected data for them!




Anyways from what i know, they use some ridiculous algorithm that scans websites, emails, and txt messages to determine their threat level to the american public. But as how much space is needed for it? I think the AES cracking will be prioritized over everything right now.

As far as text goes, I could see that being within grasp, especially if they use compression on the unencrypted stuff and selectively toss "junk" data.

I'm not a cryptonerd, but I doubt they'll crack AES anytime soon. If they do crack AES, we aren't going to know about unless they crack something extremely important that they need the public to know about for some reason.

Seems that is unavoidable. With all cross referencing and resources, there's no where to hide these days. :sighs:  I miss the old days....

That seems awfully spammy sir.

[Tarran]

He doesn't appear to be a spammer, though, based on his other posts.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Maybe he's a human spammer. They're rare, but they do exist.
