Re: The Real Problem

Trust me I am not a fan of China... I agree my issue is where is all of the other kit that is swapped out made? China build pretty much anything that has a cable, led and chips. If China wants to backdoor its own kit it isn't a wild leap that it can do it to any kit Cisco, Ericsson etc. I agree there is a risk but unless you manufacture your own components and assemble there is always a risk. The argument that just because it is state controlled it can't be trusted is simplistic to the extreme.
