Premier hacker conference Def Con, which just wrapped up its 21st year, played host to security professionals who all had very different opinions on what the NSA is up to. In fact, the only thing everyone could agree on is that the PRISM revelations came as no surprise (http://motherboard.vice.com/blog/the-many-ways-obamas-nsa-has-been-spying-on-you). Even if it isn't news to this crowd, it is still a significant development in the general climate of government surveillance and national security. And at Def Con, where government recruitment was hampered this year by conference founder Jeff Moss's requesting that feds stay away, it seemed like a good idea to walk around asking people if they would still want to work for the NSA (http://motherboard.vice.com/blog/the-big-def-con-question-would-you-work-for-the-nsa)
