Comment on Remote Tech Support services?

RustDesk is not 100% open source, it has closed source parts. It has installed suspicious certificates.
We investigated on using it on critical infrastructure, and decided that cannot use it because of these issues.

I dug into this, and it looks like it has been fixed: github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk/discussions/6444)#discussioncomment-12039260 , and no longer does that.
So Rustdesk can be used entirely open source (since the proprietary management web UI is not critical), and it no longer installs certs.
So maybe it had problems a while ago, but it looks clean in these regards now.

They must likely have linking towards government, use it with just that in mind
