I see a lot of ads these days for fancy mechanical keyboards from numerous brands, but the thing I always wonder about is: how do we know these keyboards dont have keyloggers or other spying tech built into them?

What you should be worried about more than a keylogger is that most 2.4 GHz wireless keyboards can have the keystrokes sniffed through the air. Bluetooth will be encrypted though.
