cough cough .... open source + non special hardware is a solution which soo often could have helped countries in all kind of ways weather it's avoiding back doors or if it's cooping with abandon ware, especially in combination with security gaps best it doesn't even have to be truly open source, the source being open (visible, modifiable, etc.) to you (the state) and anyone you want to pass it to is good enough (But truly open source can have benefits, too. But thats a different topic.)
