It feels dirty to agree with an ISP on something. But even the worst corporations are on the right side of something from time to time I suppose.

    Devices are already riddled with backdoors imposed by federal authorities. The only real way to avoid them is to obtain a device not designed or assembled within the NATO block.

    this smells distinctly russian for some reason, anyway, just use open source software and hardware, the protection net while not perfect, is entirely open, and theoretically, capable of perfect safety.

      Of course, disregard everything Snowden and Assange leaked. Your devices are secure, citizen. Carry on.

        my brother in christ you literally referred to it as the NATO block.

        What makes you think chinese devices don’t have backdoors for example? It’s also likely russian devices do, though idk how many if any they produce. We do know that russian malware often has a russian locale kill switch because apparently they’re a little silly like that.
