News media doesn't seem to be covering it but the group that grabbed all/alot of the NSA's  hacking tools released them last night it seems.

Be ready for big hot fixes.

I can't believe no one is covering it
It's not on CNN/Fox/The Guardian/NYtimes/MSNBC

None of the major news outlets.

I was reading somewhere that a lot of these tools are patched.
