It's a bit like why are there so many virus problems with Windows and
few for RISC OS (or other OSs). RISC OS would be much easier to hack,
but there are far fewer opportunities.
If you know that 30% of people use the password "secret", better to
tackle their accounts than invest you time guessing what the rest do.
The chaps at GCHQ are playing a different game, interested in specific
people rather than the mass. A problem if those specific people use
their own encryption system. Or perhaps not since they'd then stick out
from the crowd.
