I was interviewed about supply chain security (around 15 min mark) in a longer CNBC feature about manufacturing phones in the USA. In short, it's less about trust concerns with any particular country/govt., and more about reducing the links in the supply chain to reduce the opportunities to tamper with hardware.
Our Made-in-USA-electronics Librem 5 USA phone also got a number of shout-outs. Pretty neat!
