It's always a bit creepy to see this. I mean, if one is really close to this it could mean NSA or DARPA could have the know how and especially the money to already have one.
Well it's actually just the money. Money to buy knowhow, researchers, facilities and what else they'd need. It's not only about such things, but if you see how EFF built the DES cracker with donations or a group of security researchers breaks stuff with playstations and then see how much money and power government organizations without any transparency have then it's really creepy.
It's also a bit creepy how much power the bosses of such institutions potentially have when compared to something like a president. No wonder there are so many conspiracy theories.
