TruckchaseTo be clear, cryptography in general is not broken, but some implementations are. Here is an interesting example where the NSA compromised a mechanism by participating in setting the standards. Note: Nobody uses that particular number generator, so don't be worried.
Fortunately the security community is pretty paranoid, and I'm guessing the NSA (at least openly) won't be a welcome contributor in the future.
If you're really worried, stay off of third party encrypted solutions from large vendors (Microsoft, Google, Apple) that are known to be compromised.
