re: #72 Charles Johnson

Basically, the answer to all your questions is “no.” None of that is happening and if it were, it would be impossible to keep secret.

OK.
I don’t think it’s happening either, but if you’re saying it’s technically impossible, which is what my questions were about, then obviously it’s not and never will.
But then you say “if it were”.
Which implies it’s not technically impossible.
So I’m confused.
Likelihoods aside, and the ability to keep it under wraps aside, is it technically possible or not?

I’m gonna go out on a limb and suggest that Greenwald may have been simply bullshitting.

That, or he knows even less about this shit than I do, but thinks he doesn’t.
Either way, these specific assertions, as they stand, completely lack plausibility.
