Additional note: Since 2003, image editors such as Adobe Photoshop CS or PaintShop Pro 8 refuse to print banknotes. According to Wired.com, the banknote detection code in these applications, called the Counterfeit Deterrence System (CDS), was designed by the Central Bank Counterfeit Deterrence Group and supplied to companies such as Adobe as a binary module.[13]

Everybody with Photoshop / Paintshop pro literally has an unexplained (likely uninvestigated) government binary blob that might be a backdoor :D
