Just an FYI:

"For years, the US government loudly warned the world that Chinese
routers and other internet devices pose a "threat" because they are
built with backdoor surveillance functionality that gives the Chinese
government the ability to spy on anyone using them. Yet what the NSA's
documents show is that Americans have been engaged in precisely the
activity that the US accused the Chinese of doing."
