Probably not. The goal isn’t to sell American routers.

The goal is to sell routers to Americans with government back doors built-in.

Any companies with approval will be providing that back door.

    There is also the possibility that Pumpkin Harkonnen just wants some 'donations' to provide individual exceptions to brands.
