if you let this conspiracy out, yes of course it is possible: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security-Enhanced_Linux You should always have in mind, that not only one has insight in the code. Just the Firmware blobs, but I think this too way out of the cost–benefit for the NSA. But try it. Try to add a Backdoor or a "home telephone" in any of the opensource software. My guess: you get this thrown back on 80%. Greetings, Björn -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-security-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
