    The clients are one question, but the servers are another. If the backdoor is on the server end, which it sure looks like, then your experts won’t find anything by examining the client.

      I see. I thought that the backdoor had to be in the client, because I thought that could be the only place where the private keys are stored, but I’ve since realized that it could be on the server. Thanks for the insight.
