It's pure tinfoil hat bullshit which anyone who's done packet monitoring on networks can tell you.
Also, wouldn't the NSA be fucking panicking over all of the other manufactures, EG: AMD (10.4% of the PC market), Qualcomm (Snapdragon which is in most of your phones and tablets), Huawei (in a good chunk of the chinese phones and tablets).
Doesn't seem like a convincing strategy, even if were true.

What, like TrustZone?
Obviously the NSA has little control of chips fabbed outside the US, but who knows what undisclosed backdoors are present in Chinese fabbed silicon (it's not like similar things haven't been discovered at a higher hardware level)?
