Honestly back when the atmosphere wasn't so hostile against the NSA, they could have put this in a recruiting pamphlet and the tech news pages would be buzzing with jokes and approval instead of condemnation. Google has giant statues of cupcakes and jelly beans, Facebook has free computer accessory vending machines, and the NSA has Star Trek command centers. It's a world with fierce competition to tempt the best minds to join you with perks, including atmosphere, and every company in the world spends way too much time trying to make their conference room one-up the competition to impress visitors (in this case congressional overseers). Sure, the NSA is funded by tax money. Does that really mean you expect everyone working there to live in drab undecorated concrete rooms?

This law actually doesn't apply to the phone owner, but is enforced under this: (a) Designation It shall be unlawful for any person to - (1) manufacture for sale, offer for sale, distribute in commerce, or import into the United States any consumer product which is not in conformity with an applicable consumer product safety standard under this chapter. -http://vlex.com/vid/19232791 So unless you're planning to sell your phone, you're fine with an old one.

Nothing like a cold can of Mountain Dew and some left over pizza in the morning.
