The National Security Agency will neither confirm nor deny the stuff you buy in its gift shop.

The boilerplate Glomar Response - the government agency equivalent of "no comment" when asked for documents - caught our eye while checking out the NSA's museum right outside its fenced walls at Fort Meade, Md.

There on the window outside the NSA's gift shop (there's a gift shop?!) stood a lone sign saying the agency didn't endorse any of this stuff.

You can buy our merchandise, people, but don't come knocking on the door asking for refunds.

Check out what we found inside.
