If p => q, then ¬q => ¬p. So if p is "The goto fail was setup by the NSA", then surely we can come up with a reasonable q which could be (dis)provable?

if "setup by the NSA" then "goto fail"
I can think of a q that disproves p then! not goto fail.
problem is goto fail.
since q is true, p is either false or true, with no distinction either way. So... impossible to prove.A possible q could be "someone from nsa communicated with someone from apple"
Another possible q could be "goto fail was introduced on purpose"
These specific qs might be difficult/impossible to disprove, but that doesn't mean that there is no q we can disprove.
