      Government comprises many departments and organizations, which do many things. It’s not a single blob of all good or all bad.

      Also, not all back doors and CPU bugs are government-imposed.

        I don’t remember saying the contrary. When one part of the government does something, it was still the government.

        Don’t remember saying every single backdoor is government-imposed. Fact is there’s at least one backdoor that is for the government, whether there’s 1 or 5 doesn’t really matter.
