Valid concerns. I must point out though, that if we are worried about hardware backdoors, then Zhengzhou, "the iPhone City", is also in China, even if Apple is in the US.


When it comes to telecom products I'm less worried, though not entirely content, with products that are developed in the West and manufactured in China, than products developed by the Chinese.


I'm with you there, and wouldn't mind if we can ever onshore this stuff.

Still though, when it gets to the point where we're using "Designed in California" as a source of security comfort, things are bleak.
