I think you've brought this up a couple of times now. Ask yourself, which is likelier:

1) It's a great big conspiracy and everyone hopes nobody sees your posts about this clear backdoor technology, and the mods try their best to delete it every time you post.

-- OR --

2) You're somehow mistaken and it's not all that big of a deal.

Every time I brought it up, it gets a bunch of up votes and then [flagged] within 1-5 minutes. And yes, I think it's a big deal. It is a MAJOR intrusion and threat to user's privacy and security and somebody needs to step up and blow the whistle.
By that logic, you might as well rant and rave against SSH being available on most if not all Unix systems...?

As I understand it, it's a helper app you have to run first, it's not something permanently on?

An SSH server doesn't come pre-installed and pre-configured to give access to random people you don't even know.
Quick Assist also doesn't do that. maybe spend 5 mins googling something before you go on an internet crusade?
