How can you ensure your phone/computer doesn't have hardware backdoors?

>>108977105it's impossibleto check the obsolete ICs from 30 years ago requires destructively decapping them and analyzing them layer by layer by etching away the layers one at a timestate of the art ICs would be impossible to analyze without advanced laboratory equipment, and you'd still have to destructively analyze themif you are even a little familiar with electronics and programming, you'd know it's very easy to hide anything behind even a single bit-channel's worth of data, let alone cleverly hiding things by multiplexing behavior on otherwise innocuous seeming data/pinsso since you can't trust your hardware, the best you can do is isolate it from everyone else's with airgaps and faraday cages
>>108977105a pointless task, its 100% certain than modern intel, AMD, ARM and Snapdragon CPUs are all backdoored.

>>108977105>How can you ensure your phone/computer doesn't have hardware backdoors?Just follow risc-v development, spread the word and inform others about it's existence. Also, in ~10 years every piece of hardware will be backdoor'd and equipped with spyware. Tech gets better and smaller every day, plenty of room to hide it.So pray for open source hardware and support risc-v where you can.
