I'm pretty sure that someone with such a detailed knowledge of the workings and namings of government departments would be an onion fan
Is that the same sort of Tor branded Onion that it's reasonably well known that the government owns a goodly number of the endpoints for? The same Tor that this site has reported the government suing admins of tor nodes to shut them down, presumably to push more of the traffic to nodes they control? The Tor that governments keep arresting the (law breaking) users of which is reported on here at least monthly?
That Tor?
