Slightly tongue in cheek to counter the anti-(Chinese/Russians) tone in recent times:
Seeing how close Dell (both the company and the man) are to the US government, surely this is a backdoor by the Americans?
- kpU8efre7r 7y agoIs the anti-China or anti-Russia unwarranted? Dell fucked up and should be held accountable. Being in America they will more than likely face legal action of some sort over this. I would hope so anyway.
- lone_haxx0r 7y agoIt's really hypocritical to call out Chinese companies for spying on people when most American tech companies spy on their users.
- artursapek 7y agoYeah but here we call it "analytics", not spying!

The one that let Equifax off scott free for leaking the entire countries personal financial info with security that resembles geocities? Dell won't get punished for shit.
- kpU8efre7r 7y agoYou mean the Equifax, the company currently being sued for that? https://www.law.com/dailyreportonline/2019/01/28/judge-oks-equifax-lawsuit-over-massive-data-breach/ https://www.law.com/dailyreportonline/2019/01/28/judge-oks-e...
- stevenjohns 7y agoI don’t think this should be tongue in cheek. This is understood and considered to be acceptable when you’re in the US. What the US takes issue with is foreign governments having that kind of power.
- imtringued 7y agoThey can just release compromised drivers. There is no need to have a backdoor that can only be used through a non trivial exploit.
