Bet they’re wishing they hadn’t outsourced all of the computer science jobs to china and India.
Lovely!! I’m already not able to buy a new cel phone because I dont want the supposed govt provided amber alert chip in it. What next? Cant buy a new computer because who knows who might be stealing my banking info and whatnot as soon as I open the box?
But it’s racist to let America manufacture anything!
is this new?
what about electronic picture frames a few years ago?
If I buy a Dell made in China laptop is there Chinese spyware embedded in the chips (chip set) which undoubtedly are Chinese made too except for the CPU
If they’re talking about PCs, which is most everyone’s concern, it sounds like a great opportunity for some American entrepreneur to make a fortune selling “high security” computers, with guaranteed hardware all made in the US and tightly quality controlled.
Granted, there may be overt, or covert requirements mandating USG backdoors, such as the CALEA, to prevent anyone from keeping any secrets from government voyeurism, but at least you can keep out most foreign government and corporations trying to spy on you.
But the bottom line is that there are so many dark and downright evil forces at work trying to end the Internet and the free exchange of ideas, that sooner or later it will all come crashing down anyway, despite their pleas that to not use the Internet will destroy the economy.
Thus, to the parasites and control freaks, “If you didn’t want to kill the body, then why did you infest every part of it?”
And even as they break this news, they still protect the guilty parties and fail to state what specific products are infected and from which exporting nation(s) they are coming.
They'll hide the details here just like they hide the details of all the cheating on trade agreements by our trading 'partners'.
deal with the devil and you will receive evil desserts in return.
and this probably just a smidge of what’s coming, and is already here.
I submit that our government leaders are complicit in harming the national security of this country.

I wonder what is on the ultra cheap thumb drives I just bought?
I have wondered what backdoors China has had into fully manufactured in Commie China Mackintosh’s have had for years. Add ipads and iphones to the list.
It is insanity to let our enemies have such control over us. It is like the Roman’s outsourcing the city guards to the barbarians.
