The feds have gone to ALL device makers and demanded access, using National Security Letters each time to force the manufacturers to enter into their clandestine plan, without any public awareness. And if anyone spills the beans they may just get disappeared into a special holding facility. The US Govt. is capable of pretty much ANYTHING when it operates under the guise of "Protecting America." We can thank the Patriot Act (ever version 2 of it) for all the loss of freedoms and jack-booted state.
