'Internet security' is an oxymoron, when it comes to data privacy.
Anyone who think otherwise is deluded. Of course National Security Agencies are going to lie about their capabilities, why would they tell everyone exactly what they can and can't intercept?
It's also irrelevant. There's a big difference between a security agency doing what it's designed to do, and flying planes full of their citizens into a building full of more of their citizens.

that's bullshit
I work in IT security. I know full well the way they work, entirely meant to delude as opposed to protect peoples information.
So you think they because they opened a back door only they can get to it? Get a clue, they weaken it for everyone.
It's not irrelevant it's lying to the masses for the sake of political / military gain. So it's very relevant.

No, *that's* bullshit
"I know full well the way they work, entirely meant to delude as opposed to protect peoples information"
It's not their job to 'protect people's information', it's to intercept it.
For a *Secret Security Agency*, lying to the masses is in the fuckin' job description.
Kind of the entire raison d'etre of spying, no?
