Hmm is it me or this doesn't make any sense?

Like, the only reason to develop your own tools without homebrew crypto is e=ther because you're so paranoid about Americans that you think everything i= backdoored (read: you're dumb) or it's "deception"..

In the sense that you release the tools as a decoy and possibly as a malware=tool to infect people who want to look into sources&methods of your organiz=tion.

At the end of the day, the best thing you can do is to adopt the tools every=ne else uses and that are realistically not backdoored (eg: red phone) so y=u blend with the crowd.

Am I missing anything?

OT: google for "achmed the dead terrorist" if you've never seen it - kind of=unrelated but it cracks me up every time
