    When it comes to hardware, isn’t the situation usually…

    • American company is spying on customers through hardware it sold
    • American government is actively trying to spy on citizens through hardware (American-made or not), but the company blocks them unless they have a warrant
    • Chinese company freely shares data back and forth through the Chinese government using their hardware thanks to “backdoors”
