To be fair pretty much *every* company sucks at firmware with a few exceptions, but what I saw in the Huawei stuff just gave me a terrible feeling all around. Way, way too overengineered while still having a feeling of hacked together. Bad combo.
I mean you can complain about Intel ME and other stuff all your want, but *that* talk of all things is a largely irrelevant technical curiosity (and some clever reversing and other fun stuff) dressed up as a "backdoor!!!" cry for PR hype.

Apologies for linking to the wrong talk, apparently. Was looking for something else. But hype marketing cycle aside: The Intel ME and the secrecy of the architecture do not make for a trustworthy platform. FWIW, it's hard enough to secure stuff that is transparent.

All for open architecture myself, cant argue with that
