    I must say that Mental Outlaw is known to be using the wrong terminology e.g. calling closed source software, which basically bothers everyone who works in the cybersecurity industry as this is blatantly wrong and I assume it’s the same story with this supposed “backdoor”.

      Mental outlaw is a bit of nutter IMO. I couldn’t live with that level of paranoia, so I stopped watching him.

          Well left wingers and the far right do have one thing in common, they’re usually both under lots of surveillance.

            Yeah it so sad to start watching an Linux content creator. Yet again having to drop them when they are yet another alt-right wing nutjob.

              You’re into Linux because either you want to escape capitalism/closed source monitoring every aspect of your life, or because muh freedom.

      It’s a zero day that breaks bitlocker using some files on a USB.

      Also spyware and bloatware are fairly often used for closed-source software because almost always closed-source code is either spyware or bloatware or both.

      I’m sure you’re right, but it helps for a normie to privacy/security like my self, and viewer engagement.

      You’re right in that this isn’t a backdoor. Its an exploit hes calling a backdoor.
