  • @sugarinyourtea cute.
    A backdoor is not an api.
    A proprietary call is justified for competitive reasons but creates vulnerabilities.
    Why do you think they exist?
    Or do just troll?

  • @sugarinyourtea

    I never said or meant to imply that.

    MS builds backdoors for their own use.
    Criminals can use those backdoors.

  • @sugarinyourtea

    Old anecdotal knowledge from the 1990s.

    Became public in these court cases:

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/StacElectronics

    MS successfully countersued STAC because they were using proprietary DOS calls, ie reserved for MS products only giving them an advantage.

    There is no reason to believe MS ever discontinued their use.

  • @c0mbatbag3l @jeena Or just stop using MS products. They build in backdoors just for criminals anyway.
