That's one of the reasons we're against government surveillance, any government of any country. This is why I 
strongly support privacy advocates when they fight uncontrolled mass surveillance.

No individual, no entity, no government, no company or organization is safe from attacks. If you use these tools for 
mass surveillance, you need to believe that your tools will be published one day and you will be the victim of your 
own creation.

NSA tools were published before, and recently published again, and there might be surprises hiding here or there 
around the corner.

This is sad, shocking, and disturbing.
