The fact that existing backdoors have been completely taken over by Salt Typhoon hackers means fuck all to them, I guess.
Elsewhere the FBI suggests using encrypted texts because of Salt Typhoon. Talking out of both sides of their mouth.
Shows where the real priorities lie. Our governments view their own citizens as the enemy.
Their citizens generally don't consider them better people or some kind of aristocracy, with right to power over the rest. That is in conflict with what they themselves think. Some people I've met included.
When you treat people as your enemy, they may become your enemy. Self fulfilling prophecy.
