File this under, fucking terrifying. Please forgive me and my naiveté but what is the strategic advantage of going public with this? Feels like something you and your administration wouldn't humble brag about.

Proposed extra-naive benevolent conspiracy theory: this is "internal propaganda", someone saying this to convince _their own side_ to adopt some belief If I was a high-level deep state operative and I wanted to push to stop surveilling/hacking the world and instead support encryption for all, this is *exactly* the strategy I would take: make sure people learn about every single instance of US government databases getting hacked by foreign govs, so as to make the case that maybe the US government should just not have huge centralized databases of everyone's private data and we should keep data locally hosted and zk-prove things as needed

Would be pretty cool if somebody did harm like this to achieve some good outcome. I just can't but think that they would have done the exact same thing if the goal was to start a war instead.

Good point. Did not consider. Kind of like highly genetically modified garden seeds planted in petrol rich soil in the finite garden of bipartisan politics to force the hand of low conviction corn eating constituents to take a stance. An IEEE equivalent for encryption will be key to prevent the next quantum Cold War. 🏴☠️
