Not sure that it is anything to be proud of having India mentioned
in this context. The blurb says that besides Apple, RIM and Nokia
have also done this. Also, if they are doing it for military intelligence,
they are probably doing this for other government agencies, and
these backdoors might well be used to spy on fine, upstanding citizens
like us.

I don't believe. The attached paper scans are not really the scans. Also,
to appear as scanned, it has been degraded in pixel quality. Looks like
just a viral effort.
