What if the .GOV leaned on @microsoft and @apple to put in a backdoor to everyones computers through an added update? #nsaprism #nsaspying

Then just a minute ago I found this article about how the CIA is writing a backdoor for the Android Operating System.
The NSA Has Inserted Its Code Into Android OS, Or Three Quarters Of All Smartphones
From the article I found out that a backdoor was written into Windows 95 and possibly all further iterations of the Microsoft Operating System. And now they are writing code specifically for the Android Operating system. And when Google was asked their comment is:
"Google spokeswoman Gina Scigliano confirms that the company has already inserted some of the NSA’s programming in Android OS. "All Android code and contributors are publicly available for review at source.android.com." Scigliano says, declining to comment further."
Since Apple is so secretive about everything they do, I just wonder how many Apple devices are compromised at the factory, and just how truly secure our electronic communications actually are.
