And REALLY denial means nothing. "They" do that all the time.

I don't know what to think about this. On one hand, it won't be the first time something similar happens. I may be wrong, and it may have been debunked since then, but there was an NSA backdoor inside Windows' advapi.dll. On the other hand, I doubt such backdoor would be left undetected in OpenBSD for a decade when closed source applications get dissected like they do by security experts/hackers. It doesn't seem plausible.

Anyway, like BSDfan666 said, Theo de Raadt made the right decision.
