would anyone really be surprised?
along with the cheaper prices that a chinese labor force offers, there are the political realities of assembling stuff in china with chinese made components.
perhaps cyber security will reignite the united states' manufacturing base.
thumbs up.

Likely sensationalism. But I’m sure every router has a secret zombie mode.

Last year, I was at a presentation given by a security maven. Over the years, this person has been tasked, by our government (as well as private industry) to "go deep" into computers and other electronics that were going to be used. Attendees were told, in NO uncertain terms, that Lenovo products left the factory in China with spyware/malware already installed.
