I feel I overestimate such people who only take heed to alphanumericals and not what one might call backdoor communication. Case in point.
what does this mean mate? have you read to much 50 shades of gray or please tell me what should I get out of your comment... Thanks!
I'll respond by saying what you say kind of proves my point. The sky is the limit when it comes to communication, it never was any different, but the stereotype with the NSA is that they sit down and think "alright, let's see what this person has said today" while taking it at face value. The picture is a sort of example/jab at that stereotype. If I were to communicate in a way the NSA would call "covertly", it would be beyond them, I would be "hiding in plain sight".
how is the image related?
It's an example/jab/whatever you want to call it at the fact only certain communications matter to those who "are said to eavesdrop... but at face value" which is relevant to the people described. Imagine a message existing in any picture that uses shades and it's beyond them and the original inquiry still comes up.
