I think it is probably more likely those ports were the backdoor the government or their allies was using to function. Everyone always builds in a backdoor for themselves!

When I hear about things like this it makes me glad I have a simple satellite communicator - it will only do short text messages but that is a hell of a lot better than nothing. Of course one could get a full satellite based mobile internet device or phone but the plans on those get quite expensive.
