It's
odd to me to assume that people should trust US-based supply chains. We
know that the NSA has done supply chain attacks in the past[1], while in
this case we only have allegations of China doing the same (don't get
me wrong, I wouldn't be surprised if China did this, I'm just saying we
have more evidence for the NSA doing it).
Personally, as someone outside the US, I would gladly trust alleged
Chinese malware over known NSA malware. Or even better, literally any
other country outside the 5-eyes.
