A question raised in the comments was “would the government really force intel etc
to compromise…….security with the shortsighted view that their own computers
could be hacked…..using the same tool”, based on previous efforts with stuxnet
technology now in the wild I would say…..no this kind of thinking wouldn’t stop
them from moving forward.
The naysayers are probably saying now that….no
way could you do this as would require too many people to be in the know that
the NSA had backdoored all intel chips – my answer to that is 40,000 people had
access to the NSA data that Snowden did……and he was the only one who thought to
say…..hey this is a bad thing and we need to do something to stop it.
For me personally that’s been the scariest
aspect of the entire Snowden revelations.
