Has to be the best brush off I've ever had, but anything s possible to collect data I guess.

I don't really know how else to explain it to you other than if you look for a conspiracy, you will always find one. If you look at how things are constructed with understanding however, the evidence isn't there on these types of things that are generally reported as vulerabilities, and not "backdoors." The researchers know what they are looking at.

You assumed I was looking for conspiracy the first time I asked so I reacted. The fact is I wasn't, I was merely asking you a question since you work in the industy.
Not all of us are here to poke sticks ya know.

Hi,
MicroSoft
Seeing they're now using android for win-10 mobile and also allowing android apps desktop access off these mobile devices these holes might be fun for them to shield win-10.

Its the ARM hardware not the applications that have security holes.

Its the reason ARM is "faster" at some things than X86-64 CPUs, less security and more trust in applications.

Microsoft doesn't have anything to worry about with the application side as long as the system level security is present.
