Obviously people have good reason to be concerned about their data but basing that concern entirely on the ethnic/national traits of the developers is classically xenophobic by any reasonable definition (except liberals can't imagine that they could ever be guilty of xenophobia)

There is an active propaganda war against anything Russian here in the United States. Very simply: Russia is bad, America is good. And that is what the government wants everybody to accept. John Kiriakou (

Yeah, it must be really dangerous. That's why they're selling us the App itself, rather than using it in secret to mess with us. ... oh, wait...

Well, the app itself seems rather shady, so maybe it is a risk. But yeah, the distinction makes it feel as if these guys wouldn't even bother if it was French or something. Slow buildup to the notion that "every russian you encounter is a potential spy", i suppose.
