- simiones 5y agoThat doesn't help if you're trying to be safe from a powerful world government - one with the resources and will to infiltrate an open project for its own ends. It's far less likely that there are US backdoors in Huawei routers (which surely contain Chinese backdoors!) than in any mostly american open-source software you pick.
