This is really scary and I think it could kill the internet long term! If the US is doing it, so will other governments leading to all countries carrying out this kind of work leaving the internet totally unsafe for everybody. Given also the the Department of Homeland Security has be totally crap at keeping their own systems secure, I don't think there is much hope for any of us. > Now where's that link to ClamAv?
