@tsjensendotcom @clemensv And I have yet to find a single IT security expert who agrees with your assessment.
@tsjensendotcom @clemensv Yes, thatโ€™s got to be the reason. Letโ€™s leave it at that.

@tsjensendotcom @stilkov Ok, so if a backdoor is created, that is a precedent for all.

@tsjensendotcom @stilkov wherever you like. Russia, China, NK - the point is: if there is a backdoor, who can have it?
