NSA has been spying on everyone all along

So says William Blum:

You've probably wondered how Bill Gates, the Google-ites, and Facebook got so big and so rich so fast. Here's a possible reason: they appear to have helped Uncle Sam spy on all of us -

In February 2000, it was disclosed that the Strategic Affairs Delegation (DAS), the intelligence arm of the French Defense Ministry, had prepared a report in 1999 which also asserted that NSA had helped to install secret programs in Microsoft software. According to the DAS report, “it would seem that the creation of Microsoft was largely supported, not least financially, by the NSA, and that IBM was made to accept the [Microsoft] MS-DOS operating system by the same administration.” The report stated that there had been a “strong suspicion of a lack of security fed by insistent rumors about the existence of spy programs on Microsoft, and by the presence of NSA personnel in Bill Gates’ development teams.” The Pentagon, said the report, was Microsoft’s biggest client in the world.

So ... it's not just Obama ad-Dajjal, although as the public face of the scandal he's probably the biggest liar of them all.
