Android and IOS are also possibly at issue. It is pretty certain that Apple also is giving the NSA help. Since most of the Android phone makers are outside the USA, it is possible that the NSA hasn't been able to corrupt them. However most have American subsidiaries, and so you can't be sure. Then there's the Chinese government. Do you trust them? How about Blackberry and the Canadian Government? We know that CSE in Canada has been collaborating with the NSA since the seventies. Really, anything except White Bread Linux, could be at risk. If the compiler used is closed source, well... Wayne madhatter.ca
