Feel free to forward this to whomever it may concern.
As I blogged, why should their "alleged test updates" contain
.gov/.mil/.edu domains?
As an aside, the "garbage text" might just be some easy to break ASCII?
friendly cypher/obfuscation. (certainly sufficiently long OTP would
decrypt it to whatever, but something short is not expected to decrypt
it to (l33t?) English IMHO).
