    Everyone is saying not to look at the code for fear of "contamination". I say look at the code, so that you know how not to write your code.

    This can be viewed as a threat to US national security, therefore I hope the FBI finds everyone of you cocksuckers who have downloaded the code. Only criminals would download the code.

    There is no difference at all IMHO. The leaked code is probably one of those given to foreign governments.. that is where the leaks come from...

    They take out the NSA's backdoor for the version of the source they give to China.
