I just refuse to believe Google doesn't have some kind of hardware backdoor, or that Motorola won't once that is up and running.

    hardware vulnerabilities undoubtedly exist, whether intentional or not. its simply the nature of designing these complex semiconductors. that said, if one company intentionally creates a backdoor, won't they all? what phone do you buy at that point? any startup or small phone company may not have intentional backdoors, but I can guarantee their hardware security on all other levels pales to what apple and google can accomplish. I think the question then becomes are you more worried about google having a backdoor, or about third party compromises? im not a fan of our choices, there is no silver bullet.
