The supervisor at Best Buy in Santa Cruz went on a rant about China backdooring products, claiming Lenovo laptops are backdoored as well as DJI drones. Something like ⅓ of the laptops there are Lenovo.

"their disgusting backdoors" vs. "our glorious security protections" -
@aud @freakazoid the US would ABSOLUTELY be backdooring the shit out of every export if they were actually a significant part of any hardware supply chain

@[email protected] @[email protected] (but for real, yeah, I assume, with largely good reason, that we've basically backdoored the fuck out of domestic tech. I mean. It's been shown to be done so many times. It's so ridiculous. My own personal threat model has the US government (the one that actually has legal sway over me) as much higher on the priority list than a foreign country I probably can't visit anyway).

@aud @freakazoid very same. I dunno if they would even need to go as far as hardware/software backdoors when you have compliant service providers and a thoroughly compromised comms infra
-
@[email protected] @[email protected] right? coughs in long lines building
-
@[email protected] @[email protected] Who needs a backdoor when you've made a surveillance device where every endpoint is an ad company selling tracking info and the service provider will also sell tracking info a part of daily life, necessary to bring wherever?
It's just... ridiculous. -
@[email protected] @[email protected] the "foreign hackers" using our own "backdoors" against us was pretty fucking funny, though. I mean, come on.
-
@aud @freakazoid look, if China wants details on the locations of US citizens, they should have to buy it from the data brokers... Like how the DoD does it.

@[email protected] @[email protected] who needs a warrant anymore? If the founding fathers hadn't wanted every electronic device to constantly spy on us and be searchable without a warrant, they would have predicted the existence of computers and put it in the constitution.
also, on that note, fuck you Windows Recall and "biometric" login. FUCK. YOU. -
@[email protected] @[email protected] "yes, we're shipping and enabling a 'feature' that constantly screenshots every single thing you do on your computer and now with fingerprint login, the cops can force you to unlock your computer and just look at what you've been doing!"
fuuuuuuuck you -

cop: "suspect says dontlookoverhereattheIRlogincamera"
person, turning to the camera: "what?"
windows: unlocking noises
