In the one case I'm aware of where people found out what really went on, that being the DES encryption standard, it turns out the NSA's modifications actually made the encryption stronger, not weaker, making it less likely to be hacked by a technique that nobody but the NSA had even discovered yet, because they knew that someone else would figure it out eventually. | |
