> That's pretty sweet that they healed hundreds of thousands of computers

The cynical part of me says that (1) they just installed an NSA backdoor in hundreds of thousands of computers; (2) the FBI probably didn't even realize it; (3) it'll all come to light some years from now when the NSA tooling is leaked by a careless contractor and used by various worse actors; (4) but the "leak" was NSA's plan all along to spy on said various worse actors.

The meta-cynical part of me says all that is way too convoluted and I should take off the tin-foil fedora and tip it to m'lady.
