are there archive pages for cgtn or other such domains? I'm not sure if because behind the office firewall, but I can't read the contents, just the titles, :( Perhaps both URLs, the original one, plus sort of an archive one...

This is my shocked face ๐ฅฑ
How about we just list all of the imperial tech giants which don't have backdoors and who don't spy on users of their products.
So many privacy-focused tech-people have focused on software only, because its at least somewhere that they can make a positive contribution, but in all likelihood, something we can't mess with, the hardware, has backdoors and spying. Everything from CPUs, radios, and even hard drives likely have backdoors.
There's pretty much no way around that until we get competing non-western-owned hardware industries, which rn, only china and india are attempting.
china isn't much better - they're much more notorious for their backdoors.
edit: before (admittedly you all already have) started throwing pitchforks at me for being a glowie, i live in eastern europe, and am an anarchist. i am no way saying that the U.S. has not done it's fair share of global surveillance - honestly i'm more concerned about the U.S. because they seem to have their claws in about every single service and company. i just don't think we should be absolving china of all of their wrongdoings just because they're an enemy to the U.S.
