i saw the post which used lenovo to "disprove" the argument.

it did strike me that the poster hadn't spotted the difference between buyers and partners.

of course lenovo, a chinese company, wants a us organisation to provide it with the bona fides it needs to sell its product to the us government.

my concern is that a us company strongly associated with the us dod is going to find the receipt of trust from potential customers hard going outside the us.

maybe it is harder for some us citizens to acknowledge. but outside the us, there's a wee bit of concern about having us companies secure their data. eg the eu and south america are building data cables which circumvent the usa. http://www.pcworld.com/article/2101820/eu-mulling-investment-in-south-americaeurope-undersea-cable.html

from an appearance viewpoint, wave is headed in the opposite direction. maybe from a substantial viewpoint also. those are not folks who look like they would challenge us sovereign interests in favour of the rights of people everywhere to reasonable levels of privacy from us intrusion.
