see what i read about this in an online magazine (written by a hacker) and possibly 2600(but don't quote me) is that it was all bs and that NSAKEY wasn't really a security issue and did not allow NSA access. besides, if it was true, it is illegal and Micro$oft would be in more trouble then the Antitrust case... cause someone would have exposed it since everyone hates MS. I don't doubt it is possible, but i am skeptical. and on another note, if the NSA erally wanted to know stuff, carnivore will soon be legalized and then nothing will matter.
