It doesn’t matter either way. Intel is an American company as well, and thus unsuitable as a trust root.
A company of what country would you prefer?
Everyone likes to dunk on the US, but I doubt you could provide a single example of a country that is certainly a better alternative (to be clear I believe many of the west up in the same boat).
A European one. Pulling the kind of tricks the NSA does is considerably harder if you don’t have a secret court with secret orders.
You might want to look into what GCHQ, DGSE, and BND (as examples) actually do. Europe is not some surveillance-free zone.
Literally.
If you’re moving the goalposts from tech implementation to political vibes, it’s just more post-fact nabobism.
"SSL added and removed here :-)"
It’s not about vibes, but clear proof of a strategy to undermine global information security. Is anyone suppose to believe they don’t do that anymore?
