And Russians are using products produced by Google, the same Google that has deep relationship with government and military contracts. With your reasoning, every countriy should ban products of GAFA.
- cf498 8y agoThey most definitively should. In that case we even know, that US companies are be forced to cooperate and are legally barred from reporting it. Any foreign government using commercial US software for sensitive information is at least reckless.

- smsm42 8y agoWell, it's not my reasoning, but in general same logic of course would apply to other governments - if some government perceives the US to be a hostile power, they would be wary of American companies and US-made hardware/software.
