A far fetched concern? I believe this is a valid concern when you are talking about closed source proprietary code. Why should any other country (or even the U.S. citizens of which I am one) trust software where you have no ability to inspect it's inner workings? Go Linux!

Shit M$ already reserves nearly half of it's API's, I wouldent be surprised if some of the functions were:

if(commie == true)
   M$InitMeltdown();

The Canadian spy agancy "CESIS" found out about a year ago that the enterprise software they purchased from a US company had backdoors built in.

Not far-fetched at all.
