The link you have referred to does not tell that it has "spyware" neither "backdoor". It speaks about blobs, but not spyware or backdoors. Though such possibility exists. However, your way of giving references is not consistent with your statements. It seems like you are giving an URL for people not to click on it, and not to read it, but only to give your statement on the mailing list more credibility. I have read it, and I have not found any reference to spyware or a backdoor. > I am not hardware engineer i learned everything myself as the > information needed is widely available and there are numerous > communities that will guide you in your projects. I think you should be. Maybe you can learn it. And you should basically find few hardware engineers and get along and make at least some free hardware design parts. Do that step.
