That's quite a leap from the information in that article.
- venomsnake 13y agoAdd it to all previous and you have some basis. Companies that have been compromised[1] - MS, Apple, Facebook, Google, Yahoo, Carriers, Backbone providers - now they are going after security providers. From the big guys only Intel is standing. And that may as well be the next leak. Also think if they subverted some of the big guys antiviral software - it runs at ring 0 usually. [1] Blackmail, threats, bribes, lawful intercepts, warrants, NSLs
- ge0rg 13y agoThat article is merely one piece of information in a long chain (Echelon, the Snowden revelations, Lavabit), and all of them add up to the conclusion that you better not trust any US-based/originated IT security system.
- michaelcampbell 13y ago> any US-based/originated IT security system Perhaps, but the poster to which I replied said any US company, period. Could be he meant what you meant, but that's not what he said.
