Every time I hear “backdoor”. Shit fucking enrages me. Do you want a “backdoor” for anything secure? You want a little backdoor anybody can walk in through in your state of the art safe?

If you have a backdoor it aint secure anymore. Piece of shit motherfuckers

But it is secure. Secure against you the genpop end user from being able to keep secrets or pursue interests that may not align with the government’s interests

It’s only a matter of time until someone reverse engineers it. I wouldn’t be surprized, if Windows’es NSA backdoors were already discovered, but were patched out before hitting news. Or maybe someone is keeping it for themselves.

If you ask me: I think it could be activated via either a magic string from a verified IP address, or a malicious update from Microsoft that just turns on some features. I also think the telemetry services might be part of that.
