Thanks for the reply and info.
Unfortunately it does not clear the matter up, as these "fictional"
and "EGOTISTICALGIRAFFE" perspectives were known and considered here
already..
https://www.whonix.org/forum/index.php/topic,805.0.html
But maybe we can clear this matter up right now with a few quick and
honest questions..
Are you coderman the Martin R. Peck of the mentioned affidavit and
BigSun application?

Did you personally dream up and write this EGOTISTICALSHALLOT codename
and quoted text about a TAO exploit specific to Whonix Qubes? Are you
the original author of this or was it copied from another source?
"EGOTISTICALSHALLOT was created in 2014 by Tailored Access Operations
as a QUANTUMTHEORY Computer Network Exploitation component effective
against hardened Whoonix Qubes users on the Tor Network."
If you are indeed the original author, what personally compelled you
towards specifically choosing Whonix Qubes as a TAO exploit example
and highlighting Whonix Qubes as a prime example in your NLP system
offering to the NSA?
If you are not the original author, what is the original source
reference where this quoted text was copied from?
"EGOTISTICALSHALLOT was created in 2014 by Tailored Access Operations
as a QUANTUMTHEORY Computer Network Exploitation component effective
against hardened Whoonix Qubes users on the Tor Network."
Given the alarming nature of where the text showed up (US Court), who
it was being offered to (NSA), and what this "fictional" text
specifically made a claim of (TAO exploit of Whonix Qubes), we are
just wanting to be 100% clear on understanding and cleaning this
matter up.
Thx
