Dear pfsense-team,
I want to ask if you have been approached by any US government
officials, such as NSA, FBI, etc. and been asked/ forced to include
any backdoors, spyware, loggers, etc. into pfsense and if you did so.
Hello all!
Thank you for all your reactions so far!
Reading the whole thread, I can't help but feel two things:
1. Quite a bit of aggression of some users. Why? Because I asked a
simple and "naively" straight-forward question? Strange, isn't it?
2. A "nothing to worry here, just continue walking" attitude of some others
I think this is strange.
And by the way: It is not only "some" question, but *the* question,
actually, if someone remembers what we are talking about here! We are
talking about a network security software - so what on earth is more
normal than asking if this software *is* secure!? Should we all just
look away and continue our business as usual, as if nothing has happened
the last year out there on the globe?
We all know that the governments currently force on a daily base one
company after the other to comply to their New World
Order-Orwellian-global-surveillance phantasies and make them compromise
their software or service. So I find it absolutely NECESSARY to clear
out if pfSense has fallen (already) to them, or not. Network security is
THE major reason for using pfSense. So it should be the most important
question for all of us, isn't it?
By my comprehension, everyone who says that this is a silly question or
that it is some unimportant thought no one should further bother
thinking about in detail, is either confused, or trying to conceal
something.
Regards
Thinker Rix
