"We hack network backbones, like huge Internet routers...

Cisco makes most of the routers, so it makes sense that Obama was having meetings with Cisco from early on.

Most Cisco routers are Made in China(tm).

How much of this do you really think the chicoms don’t already know?

Many moons ago was in a training class run by a Cisco employee. He was trying to explain how their routers systems worked back then. After asking him a few questions, I came to the conclusion that he had no idea how they actually worked.

From Cisco support community - Nearly all the Catalyst switches are from factories in China. Wireless access points are also in China.
