Graham knows all about “back doors”.
Lindsey is all about backdoors.....
Maybe its time for Apple and Intel to move their headquarters to someplace that won’t tell them how to make their devices, liek Russia. Sheesh!
We only need to shut the border to terrorists. WtF. More people disarmament in the guise of safety while terrorists always avoid those nets and use these back doors against us.
No kidding. Lots of interest in back doors does this on have...
Exactly my first thought.
Lindsey “Backdoor” Graham, eh?
Hey Graham, there’s a Judy Garland marathon on TV, now prance along.
The jokes are already busily writing themselves.
Oh sure, give it to government so terrorist, drug cartels and our good friends in China and Russia can access it as well.

LG needs to be investigated for sedition and accessory to war crimes.

I just did one
He opened his to McWeasel..
This is all a show. The NSA has backdoors into almost all software and communications. And the few it doesn’t, they’ve broken. Ralph Nachio of Qwest went to jail for not giving the NSA access. Others have been sued (w/out representation) and broken or caused the company to fold.
