Every barrel has a bad apple.
But, in this case, bad apples do not spoil the bunch.
The core is what counts.
The SWAMP is EVERYWHERE.
Q
Remember the Clipper chip?

Techopedia explains Clipper Chip
The clipper chip used what is called a skipjack algorithm, which was developed by the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) and classified as secret. It contained the CAPSTONE chip, which provided all cryptographic processing. The clipper chip was supposed to be adopted by all telecommunication companies in the U.S. to provide encryption, thus preventing outside eavesdropping. However, there was a back door; the government had the decryption key and anyone legally authorized could gain access to the key and decrypt all messages.
Of course consumers complained and they backed off... NOT.
Capstone chip - similar to Keystone?

Texas Instruments has announced a new KeyStone-based System on a Chip (SoC) and EVM for development of high performance computer systems. The device known as '66AK2H14' provides developers with access to a 10Gbps Ethernet switch-on-chip. The company claims the inclusion of the 10GigE switch, along with the other high-speed, on-chip interfaces can save board space which has the potential to lower system cost and power. The new evaluation module (EVM) released in conjunction with this device enables developers to evaluate and benchmark the system.
The 66AK2H14 SoC provides computational DSP performance at 307 GMACS/153 GFLOPS and 19600 DMIPS of ARM performance, making it ideal for applications such as video surveillance, radar processing, medical imaging, machine vision, and geological exploration.
A 10Gbps Ethernet switch on the chip...how convenient for video surveillance etc.
Just tossing this out there...
