[1] Everyone gets asked to implement backdoors in this game. This includes games companies like [2] Riot Games and the popularly recognized cases of apps like [3] TikTok and [4] Snapchat. It's also worth noting, people assume (wrongly) that only China wants access to this data, the Feds are more than happy to strong arm people via [5] NSA letters (or other means as in [3]).

- sim7c00 3y agothanks for the background info thats some insightful reads. theres a defcon talk about chip decapping which us alsl very telling on this matter. even if they dont get asked companies also get infiltrated actively and are victimised. the difference is sometimes really hard to tell with the lacking inside info. its a weird game going on for sure. thanks
