Very fine piece of evidence
- trasz 6y agoIf the US is doing it, then China must be doing it too.
- edgyquant 6y agoThe US isn’t doing what China is accused of because they lack the ability. They definitely would if all corporations were state controlled.
- trasz 6y agoSnowden documents clearly show the US corporations cooperate with NSA by providing backdoors. We don't know for sure if they do this because they are being forced to, bribed, or just nice to the government agencies, but the end effect is the same: they do whatever the US agencies tell them to.
- edgyquant 6y agoIt shows they turn over information it does not show they do the bidding of the US government. There is a legal process in the US that must be abided by while this isn’t true of the PRC. The line between corporation and state is a blurry one in China, to say the least.
- trasz 6y agoInstalling backdoors isn't "turning over information". And I'm not sure secret cangaroo courts match the typical western understanding of the term "legal process".
- edgyquant 6y agoIt’s not evidence it’s a legit question if the US could get away with it they would as would any rational actor.
