@willlstrafach,
Nothing you have said convinces me the commentator you are replying to is wrong. Especially since an NSL would prevent ANYONE who detected anything from speaking about it. Updates that tweak code to introduce vulnerabilities, is not something thats science fiction.
- willstrafach 9y ago> Especially since an NSL would prevent ANYONE who detected anything from speaking about it Forced malicious updates would indeed be a reasonable concern if this was somehow actually the case. It is not, though, and I am not sure how that would even work. Are you saying that when it is detected, the government would somehow become aware of the detection and threaten the finder with an NSL before they could tell anyone?
- throwawaymanbot 9y agoJust because YOU cant figure out how it works, does not mean its not possible my friend. But I will say, that when you have a backdoor, and suddenly that backdoor stop providing intel/data/whatever, its usually a good indicator.
- willstrafach 9y agoI do not know what you mean by this. Again, my point was that any backdoor is highly unlikely to stay hidden.
- throwawaymanbot 9y agoI point out yet again, to the Yahoo Email debacle. Google it please.
