    When my oldest son [Linus Torvalds] was asked the same question: “Has he been approached by the NSA about backdoors?” he said “No”, but at the same time he nodded.

HA!

Also hilarious was their assumption he told them that he couldn't even if he wanted to, when in reality Linus probably told them they could take their backdoor, and the backdoors of their houses for that matter, and shove them up their asses, then rubbed his middle finger in their faces for a solid minute.
