Makes you wonder what we don't know

It was a big surprise to find out about printers spitting out their serial number in yellow microdots on every document coming off your printer. Makes you wonder what else we don't know.

I really doubt the NSA would need to back door every copy of Windows because it's so easy to hack as it is and wouldn't be worth getting caught. Foreign sales of Windows would dry up almost overnight.

Still, I can see why many in the Linux community don't trust binary drivers. There's a lot we don't know and our government has given us ample reasons not to trust them.
