I didn't say anything of the sort - just that major tech companies don't seem to really care about their reputation in relation to the NSA snooping. I'm not saying they've built in backdoors or anything either way, I'm just saying if they have, I don't think the average consumer seems to really care about it. Heck, I'd bet most of Hacker News is still using Google, Facebook, Microsoft products etc. and their reputations have hardly been tarnished by the revelations.
