Are you saying that any Chinese company is untrustworthy? Because most of our world runs on Chinese technologies, eg. the ZTE hardware a technician has just installed at my home.
Edit: that is NOT an argument for its trustworthiness...
- killjoywashere 8y agoThe fact that they sell a lot of it does not mean it's trustworthy. That means it's cheap and cost-effective, all else being equal. Trust, and the use of information, however, are exquisitely difficult to assess until it's too late. And humans, as a species, are well known for trading less pain now for more pain later.
- TomMarius 8y ago> The fact that they sell a lot of it does not mean it's trustworthy I did not claim that. I merely said that it powers most of the world - meaning that most of the world is compromised, if so.
- draugadrotten 8y ago> most of the world is compromised, if so. This is the only assumption which is safe to make. The question is not if your internet communications are being monitored, the questions are who and why.
