If the chinese lack engineering design talent to actually make something, how can they provide a functioning back door?
Can that be accomplished by a political order?
During the Obama regime, the Chinese hacked ALL of the personnel and medical records for EVERY DoD military active duty, and veterans. They also hacked the credit and personal data of ALL Federal civilians.
Just an accident, I guess.
“how can they provide a functioning back door?”
by using the operating system they stole/modified
“Can that be accomplished by a political order?”
Yes, especially when the company like all others in China is owned by the PLA/government.
