Firm but fair… Not easy to do on a large scale without detection though but eh?
If you can intercept the hardware and replace a chip, it's more than possible to do it undetected. Although it's even easier if you can hold the telco to secrecy about what you're doing for, y'know, national security purposes.

Or both! Try firmware. It’s both soft and hard.
And flashable remotely when you want to 'upgrade'.

These guys could have swapped hardware from inside the firm with stuff they made themselves. They could have paid anyone at all in there to do that any money you could reasonably consider imagining someone being paid for it, and since the discovery of that would constitute a huge crime, possibly treason, they’re hardly going to tell us all.
Absolutely. If I was doing it, I wouldn't bother with the cable - too much can go wrong. You want the best access? Go to the nexus where the international cable plugs into the national network and futz with the servers and switches. Makes you wonder why Lance Wiggs' alternative cable couldn't get funded, eh?

Well, and there was a live camera stream of the crowd. I noticed Russell hadn’t shaved, but then that’s part of his metadata anyway.
Yup, doesn't even shave for Media Take.

It’s not a fucking TV game show, Lemming.
A) I’m pleased to see politics has you so passionate
B) Dotcom announced it as his moment of truth that Key had lied about him
C) that’s nzlemming (all one word).Just so you know.

First response: Greenwald - good, Snowden - brilliant, Assange - distracted but serious, Armstrong - weakest link, though what he had to say was important. If he could have refrained from the lawyerly cheap shots, he'd have been better. But Dotcom - MIA.

Not seeing KDC's moment of truth yet. If it was the email, it is pretty weak sauce.

I'm struggling to see how these disprove that Snowden's allegations that mass surveillance of NZ internet communications is happening.
It's a squirrel.
