    Yes.

    Also phones made in the US have back doors that the US government can access. It’s not really secret.

      It’s secret like Area 51 is secret. We know it’s there, we know the government is doing something with it, but we don’t know fully what, when, why, or how.

      Why do these threads always circle back to the US? It’s always the obnoxious “USA bad because other country bad”

      And no, I’m not American

          I’m aware, but if that’s the answer why not include other nations, then? It’s always just the US and I find that very curious and kind of annoying when any criticism is drawn to China on Lemmy. It’s always the same knee-jerk reaction.

          Because from what I see, the degree to which that happens is kind of wide and involves way more countries than just the US and China. Source
