All electronic devices are subject to compromise.
I do not want to sound too paranoid but having some knowledge of electronics I assume they are all subject to compromise and most likely are.

Most electronics devices including computers are made overseas far away from the eyes of most Americans.

Corporations who make these devices receive huge tax breaks and grants from the federal government in exchange they make every device easy for the government to spy on.

I must also assume that all major corporate produced software also retains spying capabilities only known to the government.


The expectation of privacy is over and has been for many years. It will never return and the level of intrusion inevitably grows in the coming year regardless of who is in power.

Note:

Those who say they don’t care because they are doing nothing wrong.

(YOU do not decide if you’re doing something wrong! Whoever is in power at the time decides that!)

‘It’s not important who cast’s the vote…it who counts them!’

** GOD I hate right-wing enablers! **

1. They don't need to spy, we are all right here out in the open for
the world to see. If they don't like what they see, they can move to a different country... so to speak.
