Right? I'm disabling firewalls and network monitoring as we speak. Nice try, NSA.
Yes, I will keep my default credentials just as they came, that'll show the NSA
NSA has both "defensive" (protect US info) and "offensive" (gain foreign intel) departments. This could be written by the former.
Who needs service accounts anyways? First thing I do on a new server is kill the firewall, open up ssh to root, and generally just set the password to root as well. NSA can't touch this.
