"All the revelations about the National Security Agency's prying into millions of people's not-so-private-anymore communications certainly have folks worried. But the NSA makes sure it presents a friendly face to kids at a website aimed specifically at them. It's called America's CryptoKids, Future Codemakers & Codebreakers, where children can find out why cryptology is "so cool."'
Of course, this isn't the first time children have been recruited.

I'm sure kids will forget about their dreams of being a race car driver, astronaut, or actor when they see that website. Then they'll spend their time busting their butts in high school math instead of having a social life so that they can learn matrix algebra and graph theory in college.
