But being able to request it and having a built-in backdoor for anyone with a key are different things. It has happened before that the Chinese government figured out network equipment backdoors that were put in for the US government. All your company secrets are there for the taking for anyone with the resources to figure out that backdoor. Especially now that people know it exists. Shouldn't this at least start the clock on expiring this hardware?
