Hi,

My presupposition ...

 - US located vendor must have backdoors "by inofficiale rules of
government"...

Isn't it?

This is a serious security issue imo

I just saw this page for the first time today and I find this totally
unacceptable behavior from a vendor. Where is the priority for root level
exploits? Are you people comfortable knowing that a vendor has and *always
will have* full backdoor access to all your Windows systems as long as we
allow lag times like these?

So the question is, how much longer is the security community going to
tollerate this industry supported backdoor CRAP before getting back to full
public disclosure with a 2 week warning for the vendor? Obviously force is
required when dealing with slackers.

Geo. (why haven't the news folks picked up on this for what it is, known
backdoors to all Windows systems)

Note to Marc from eeye, correct me if I'm wrong, most of these are backdoors
right?
