You’re right. This is clearly very different. I wouldn’t classify NSA’s actions as criminal. Many know these kinds of battles happen out of sight, but some don’t.
I hope it’s intended as more of a warning around the danger of weakening our network and security. If the NSA can hack Huawei, China’s going to find NSA’s backdoors and weakening of our Internet and security very helpful.
This is a risky leak. I hope people understand how it fits in with the other materials released to date.
