Are you saying, a potus appointed commission for auditing government system is worse than a chinese backdoor in treasury department, who's level of access was unknown?
If you can’t understand that difference, you’re missing something very critical.
One is serious because a foreign adversary is compromising us; the other is serious because we are apparently designing the compromise ourselves via the whims of a demagogue.
You don't need read-write access for auditing. You don't need root/admin-level privileges.
So far the only evidence of that is a wired article [1] with anonymous sources, even those source were not 100% sure about it.
Since then wired has posted another article [2] claiming the access have been revoked after announcements from senior officials, which again is from anonymous sources.
I'm really skeptical of these anonymous sources tbh.
