Um, what guarantees it now? Everything's made in China.

And you weren't worried about Peace and Democracy USA??

    Nothing, I don't know what (if any controls) are in that now. I do know Benn Jordan did a video about the robot dogs the other day and they had HUGE backdoors and security implications that go back to servers in mainland China. That's what prompted my reply. I don't trust any of my equipment to be unadulterated anymore but where there is a history of having backdoors in place, I am extra leery.

    Yeah, I am worried about the US, whether it be from the supplier of the chips, the os, third party applications, or my ISP, I can almost guarantee there is someone in my network who shouldn't be. I don't have to like it or make it any easier for there to be more of them though.
