True, unfortunately. With England and the US leading the west in spying on their citizens, but the rest already follows suit. Still funny how China and Russia try to criticize just of all what is common practice in their own countries.

In Russia because most of the hardware and software that we use is actually imported it is hard for the state to insert such backdoors (unlike in US, where NSA/CIA could just go and get Google etc give them the access behind the scenes). In terms of survailence state we are a decade behind the US.

It seems to me you give your hackers not sufficient credit. Give them some love, they are much more capable than you think.

Nah, I just see how US corporated their cyber efforts with all the benefits economies of scale and access to key players (ie google) give you and compare it with fairly low key efforts by small quasi independent groups that we have.


But we are following the same path, we are for example going through an attempt to build unified supporting/protective infrastructure (closed state networks, cyber defenses on them and on civilian networks, state datacenters etc) with mixed results.
