Is it true? Will it actually be illegal to own 3rd party routers that are not made in the US?
>>108449765Truly land of the free, how I envy you.
I'm sorry you're being protected from yourself trying to buy ccp backdoor'd routers that contribute to the massive fraud and botnet problem plaguing the internet
>>108449785It's a open source router.
>>108449785>rather have a NSA router!
>>108449785How does that affect me? If I truly have a CCP backdoor router, why should I care? I understand why the government might care but why should I?
>>108449785The chips in those "US routers" are still all China made. The SoCs, the WiFi chips.
>>108449765Just buy an industrial PC instead. It's not a router, it's an industrial PC running opnsense.
just build your own legal framework in your head>"it was legal in my mind"
>>108449765>that are not made in the USThat's literally all of them, so I look forward to seeing how that goes.On a related note, there's suddenly a whole bunch of small form factor computers with the the exact ports a router needs, and conveniently available router software for them.
>>108449795>why should I care that I'm part of the botnetYou are a pedophile.
>>108449765I thought they're just banning the import of foreign made routersI don't have a crystal ball, but if that happens in the future then it's not because of this particular legislation
>>108449794Don't most routers have some NAS functionality these days, even those from China?
>>108449785Yes, its important to be protected from a country thousands of miles away who is no threat to you. But being back-doored by the great Satan, an entity of pure evil who could destroy your entire life, that is perfectly ok.
>>108450226This, I'd rather have CCP backdoors instead of NSA ones, I never plan on visiting China anyways.
router botnets from china are used by oinkrainians to pilot drones
>>108449765>Will it actually be illegal to own 3rd party routers that are not made in the US?Ask yourself does this make green line go up? If yes it will get passed into law.
how do i get a very low TDP computer to make my own router? all of the SBCs use more watts than commercial routers i think
>>108450226>no, I rather enjoy being part of the botnet, I like my ip address being used to commit felonies
>>108450226>No threat to youChinese botnets attack American institutions, are you saying you're willing to attack your own country anon?
So... is it just routers or any network hardware? My ISP router is hardware signed to my ISP's servers so I can't replace it, but I do disable its wifi and run my own local network.
>>108450309My country is a threat to me and attacked first
>>108450309> your own country anonCountries are an outdated concept. We have economic zones now.
>>108450114>If you arent afraid of botnet you are pedoI think you find it's opposite. But you still failed to explain why it's bad.
>>108450303I'm not committing felonies though. Arrest my ip address
>>108450309It's just a clump of states
>>108449765No. It's jewtubers spreading propaganda.
>>108449765I'll get to it later maybe, but surely the law defines exactly what a router is because there's a really fine line between something like a raspberry pi and a router.
>>108450148kek. it's nsa as in national security agency.it is not nas as in network-attached storage.
>>108449785These retards are missing the point, probably chinese drones: (>>108449794) (>>108450226)The companies were apparently safe to operate before just now. If something changed, it needs to be disclosed to ensure further vulnerabilities don't affect users in the future.
>>108449785It’s insane that people actually believe this. The only people actually stealing your data and contributing to fraud and bots are the folks in the American security apparatus. The fact that Snowden exists but people still think China is the big threat to our privacy is insane. I’m almost convinced posts like this aren’t even from real people.
>>108451273>>1084525862 ccp points have been added to your social credit score, comrade
>>108453627Stop quoting random posts and hoping for the best, you intensely retarded cunt.
>>108449765if you don't know how to build a PC and install pfsense on it then you deserve what's coming for you
