	that's  because from the point of view of ordinary retards,
	the 'arguments' are perfectly sound. 

	the government is good and the source of all justice,  and
	intel and any other big business exist only to 'serve
	customers' 

	so, given a supremely just government like the amerikkkan
	government and the amazing 'free market' firms that the govt
	created (by 'protecting human rights') no sane person would
	doubt their good intentions and technical skills.

	also, open source security might be better in some ideal
	scenario,  but close source works pretty well for the
	industrial mafia. Of course closed source stuff can be
 	reverse engineered given enough resources, but the vast
 	majorith of people don't have those resources.
