Yes, those on the list a few months ago [...] will remember censorous arab Sameer Parekh for sending abusive mail threatening legal action to those who criticised the security of his companies "stronghold" firewall,
Stronghold is a web-server, not a firewall.
My mistake, memory fails under the influence of alcohol.
which I among others suspect to contain govt. backdoors,
Would you or Dimitri care to be more specific?
Not really, This was just flamebait, I have no strong opinion one way or the other about stronghold, and have never looked at the product.
(Yes we know about the legal threats Dimitri received, personally I consider this is a mistake on C2Net's part).
This is the sole reason I have a low opinion of C2Net, hardly a reason to suspect their products are insecure you might say, but certainly a valid reason to treat their products with caution, as it shows a censorous trait in the company.
