ChinaUSA hacked Verizon, AT&T and Lumen then left the door open for anybody elseAnd this is why the NSA is supposed to close exploits rather than harvest them for surveillance.
This is why surveillance backdoors are always bad, and you can’t math around that.
If the door exists, then it can be opened
US did not need to hack, they just said they need the key… How did china get these keys?
Are our glowies selling state secrets now?
Wow. It’s almost like we’ve been warning for years that putting backdoors into software, systems, and encryption would allow nefarious parties to exploit them.
Think about the children <clutches pearls>. It will make it easier for police to access instead of <checks notes> doing actual police work and getting a warrant.
Well yeah but then they’d have to expand the hiring pool beyond the dumbest jock you knew in high school and those people tend to balk at doing fascism so…
Hey, be fair! They also hire the three bullies who hung out by the bleachers smoking cigarettes.
Sorry, I only think of children during school shootings, it’s easier that way.

The FBI is the nefarious party lol

The pioneers of this dirty business were overwhelmingly founded by ex-Israeli signals intelligence personnel,
That’s interesting. Must be a coincidence.
and related Clinton-era initiatives, like the failed Clipper Chip program, which would have put a spy chip in every computer, and, eventually, every phone and gadget:
“Don’t worry, guys we tried to backdoor all devices but failed, see?”
Meanwhile, Intel ME, AMD “Secure Processor”, and ARM “TrustZone”:
That link is a 404 for me.

What?? But the FBI called dibs on that backdoor! /s
It’s almost like putting backdoors into software as a whole is a bad idea cause anyone who knows of it can use it, not just “tHe GoOd GuYs”
This article is getting saved, for the next time some idiot proposes ‘lawful backdoors’, which will inevitably happen.
Nervously glances at TPM and TSA approved locks.
I still love the fact that those TSA keys are all available online as 3D files and likely as metal as well
Those locks are kinda optional. And luggage is way less important than all of one’s communication ; imho.
Oh absolutely, but it does do something that I’m not sure people realize: it normalizes the idea of a government agent holding the keys to all of your stuff.
I know for a fact you can get a metal set for a few dollars plus shipping.

Omg the back doors work for anyone who can gain access to them??? Shocked-pikachu.jpg
I remember them trying to get Apple to put in a back door as well
Only Apple can use that data for profit! Now the Alphabet agencies just buy that data from brokers… I just realized how funny the parent company to Google name change is.

Thank you for this sentence, I thought you were talking about Google, YouTube, etc at first
At least they were not talking about Lemmy, Mastodon, etc. like someone is trying to screw up the Fediverse.
Dang, you’re right! It’s like noticing the arrow in fedex
That was a psyop my man
Got normies super comfortable ;)
Can’t buy Huawei Networking gear, if we get hacked it has the be through our own backdoor.
nice, that’ll tech them.
@db0 works as intended
