Certainly if the evidence showed that the NSA were breaking into wiring
closets and hacking into computer networks this would be a much different
story.

(Yes, you can speculate that they're probably doing this too, but this

with the permission of the computer owners, not despite the owners actively
trying to keep them out.)
