The Defense Department is opening an investigation to determine if the tech giant’s use of overseas engineers to maintain sensitive U.S. government computer systems compromised national security.
This is definitely hindsight is always 20/20 sort of thinking but governments should have long ago realized that trusting the likes of Intel, Microsoft, Oracle, etc. would leave them reliant on their innovations and also subject to their whims, mistakes, and more.
Well, I would suppose that a government, if it really want, have more than one way to solve this problem, it is not a small business that can’t fight back. And it can fight back in more ways than just “I will switch vendor”
Basically I’m saying World governments all need their own internal OS developed and maintained internally by an official subdivision of said governments, and maybe even a separate branch developing internally utilized hardware.
Yes, but it would be a nightmare to communicate even with your allies if everyone has a different OS running on differen hardware since at some point you will need to communicate with someone.
