I don't really want you to know how to recreate it until the companies have had 
a chance to fix said issue. I'd hope, if such issues were disclosed, those news 
outlets would go through proper channels of disclosure before going to press 
with it.

I think the NSA is hoping that to be the case. But just based on the fact that 
60 Minutes did a story on the NSA and the NSA, POTUS, congress, and that half 
my Twitter, Facebook, and mailing lists are still talking about it (though my 
networks are probably biased) shows that people are still interested. Also, I 
think there's a fair chance SCOTUS will take this up due to differing rulings. 
Before this goes the way of Crypto-AG or clapper, its got quite a fair distance 
left in it.
