    From slashdot.org http://yro.slashdot.org/story/13/12/21/0041228/reuters-rsa-weakened-encryption-for-10m-from-nsa

    Lasrick writes "As a key part of a campaign to embed encryption software that it could crack into widely used computer products, the U.S. National Security Agency arranged a secret $10 million contract with RSA, one of the most influential firms in the computer security industry, Reuters has learned."
