    You think having a fake online name will stop them from finding out who you are? Did you even pay attention to the Snowden leaks?

        They also have backdoors in most implementations of TLS, according to a person I know who worked government security.

          Still takes more work than just giving them that information.

            Sure, if we’re talking about code vulnerabilities only. It’s most likely a compromised root cert though.

                Right, this would be a MitM vulnerability, which could be reasonably viable for targeted attacks.

      It is almost never a question of whether it’s possible or not. You WILL make a mistake. It’s just a question of how much effort you’re worth as an individual.

      No, they said we already knew about that and didn’t give it another thought.
