This is my question as well. > Based on his inspection of the device, Appleboum determined that the telecom company's server was modified at the factory where it was manufactured. Any further evidence to support that claim? How can they be so sure that the boards weren't tampered with after they were manufactured and shipped to the states? Anyone with a little soldering experience could easily replace an ethernet port.
