Got caught?

Call me suspicious but I wonder how much of my home use hardware/software has hidden ports for the feds (and hackers) to access my personal information. If it doesn't have it now, it will in the future.

It wouldn't be hard for a company to embed something like this in my router. Same with my cell phone. Same with software programs like MSOffice, etc.

Not that I have anything to hide but this kind of vulnerability can be exploited by hackers trying to steal my bank account information.

It’s not just an individual threat. Businesses also are vulnerable to this exploit and need to be aware of its existence and efforts to eradicate it.
