"Glenn Greenwald's book No Place to Hide reveals that the NSA intercepts shipments of networking gear destined for overseas and adds spyware. Cisco has responded by asking the President to intervene and stop this practice, as it has severely hurt their non-U.S. business, with shipments to other countries falling from 7% for emerging countries to over 25% for Brazil and Russia."

Does the spy-ware apply to open source firmware/software also?? If not, purchase routes that you can flash to an open source alternative (tomato, DD-wrt, etc.)
