The CIA/NSF does not pay any one off.  They just twist an arm or two and
they have all the access they want.  At least that is what one of them
did out in CA about 2001 or 2002 when they put in their equipment into
the AT&T network and started listening.

 I'd rather be safe than sorry.  People used to think cleartext
Telnet wasn't worth worrying about either.  Or email.  Or whatever.
They've always been proved wrong in time.  I don't want my employer to
be the next statistic.  Especially given that industrial espionage is
increasing at an astronomical pace.  All it would take is one guy
working at the carrier getting paid off by the Chinese.  (Or the CIA,
if you're not US.)
