No matter how many sacked, there is still plenty supply from such a huge population. Sacking anyone won't hurt its spying capability.

Oh, please come down to earth, oh Angel hatemonday!!! 
A couple of examples, if I may: About threats: -- Within the new NAFTA, Canada will have to buy more US milk products, whether we like it or not, or else the US will bring our steel and aluminum industries to their knees. -- The US has threatened to impose huge tariffs on French wine, if France goes ahead with its GAFA Internet tax. About spying: Prayer: "Dear God, please help some Americans stop playing the offended virgin!" 
Like the US does NOT have the CIA, the NSA and a couple of other spying agencies. I'm not saying the Chinese may not be doing it through Huawei, but the US is doing it too to other countries through God knows what channels. FYI, all countries have spying agencies.

Maybe the whole viewpoint of 'governments using national companies for nefarious purposes' is outdated. Perhaps we're already living in our own dystopian Bladerunner/Alien universe where large, global conglomerates are using puppet governments for their own nefarious purposes instead. Maybe the concepts of borders and nationality have already been replaced by the concepts of markets and conditions. |

I hate to lighten the discussion, but I read "using puppet governments ..." as "using puppy governments for their own nefarious purposes" and wondered, for a moment, if it was a discussion about mavrothal...! Whew, I was so relieved when I realized it was "puppet" and not "puppy"... wiak _________________ WeeDogLinux forum: https://weedoglinux.rockedge.org/viewforum.php?f=4 Tiny Linux Blog: https://www.tinylinux.info/ Check Firmware: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=1022797 |

Come to think of it, IMO, the Chinese gov't will NOT be using the Huawei 5G technology for spying. Think about it: it would be sooo obvious: first place counter- espionage will look. Besides, specs and description of components of those phones have to be public, worldwide, for repair and maintenance purposes. If there was some kind of hardware mole in the phone or the relay system, it would soon be discovered. Chinese spies will no doubt use it like any other user would, but as a general spying tool for the Chinese gov't, I have to say no. About the argument that Huawei was founded by a former officer of the Chinese Army, turn the argument around: how many former officers of the American or Canadian, etc., army, work for tech companies in their respective countries? You're still rather young when you retire from the Forces, and you want to start a second career. See? In itself, that argument does not mean anything. _________________ musher0 ~~~~~~~~~~ "You want it darker? We kill the flame." (L. Cohen) |

Absolutely agree !!! It seems that every Chinese company is performing some sorts of political tasks in one way or another secretly.

That will never happen. China now totally controls the electronic components industry except for high-end processors which are jealously guarded by the Americans. ______________ |

Huawei is one of the main suppliers of the technology used to monitor and repress the population in Xinjiang. You know, ethnic cleansing, re-education camps and prison due to ethnic intolerance. Huawei supports this voluntarily, works hand-in-hand with the chinese government while using Xinjiang as a testing ground to test the surveillance equipment that they do not make.
https://www.scmp.com/news/china/diplomacy/article/3043450/huaweis-5g-ambitions-under-pressure-britain-over-xinjiang This report includes Huawei in the last 1/5 of the page for that info concerning Xinjiang https://www.aspi.org.au/report/mapping-more-chinas-tech-giants Here is some more documenting what china is doing in Xinjiang, this article does not include anything about Huawei just the abuses in Xinjiang. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/11/16/world/asia/china-xinjiang-documents.html . |

Note to Perdido - Huawei factories are state of art and well managed. Don't believe everything you read in mainstream media. Here's a good article to explain ... https://thegrayzone.com/2019/12/21/china-detaining-millions-uyghurs-problems-claims-us-ngo-researcher/ https://thegrayzone.com/2018/08/23/un-did-not-report-china-internment-camps-uighur-muslims/ __________________________________________________ |

For anyone that does not think there could be a spy chip or spy software in these Huawei devices
