            But Chinese companies won’t just sit there and wait for that day to come. They have been developing their own techniques. Many brilliant people know very clearly that it’s too late to stop China. There is no winner in the trade war, not China, definitely not USA either. Sadly there are always some brainless bogans cheering for their American masters.

              @MadMaxBargainRoad: Yes but if you knew more about Western politics like Australia you'd realise there is a lot of corporate welfare behind the scenes. Fox was given $30+ million by the Australian government for no apparent reason. NBN was butchered for corporate interests by the Libs too. Transurban gets contracts left right and centre at the cost of taxpayers.

              To say that it is a free market here is a bit disingenuous as it is quite obvious some companies benefit from our "free market" much more than others. Australia is great for many things but it definitely ain't perfect. To attack others which point it out just shows how childish you are.

              China may not be a leader in many fields but they are growing faster technology wise than what many Westerns believe. The money that goes into R&D is on par if not higher than the West. They adopt new technologies faster than we can fathom as their leaders are actually open to technology. It is hard to explain in a short post but I can say unequivocally that your opinion is uninformed.

              @Sydney11: They don't have as many allies as Western countries but they have many economic ties which gives them soft power. They're closest relationship would probably be with Pakistan.

              That said, the BRI provides them with a lot of economic relationships all along the Middle East, Africa and Europe.

        if the ban continues, Huawei will not pack Google apps and service framework in newer models. However, contents that can be accessed as a public resource are not included. That means Huawei, in theory, should be able to add just one simple step during the system initialisation and give users an option to install those Google apps and the most importantly the framework. I don't know if you have ever done it yourself, but it really just takes a few minutes (3 mins, at most) to install all those components to make Google services running. Not to mention this was just one resolution I can think of as an outsider.

      • enveloped on 25/05/2019 - 10:19

        The app store itself is a bad concept. Back in the 90s, it would have been done with a protocol like DNS, so each app can publish their own stuff and sign their code cryptographically. It should be about if you trust the app, not if you trust the path (appstore) to get it.

              @shellshocked: The US does the same with companies such as Boeing and the EU with Airbus. China is definitely not alone in this and I highly doubt you of all people would know remotely anything about what Huawei, Boeing or Airbus do behind the scenes let alone their ties with their respective governments.

    because US have no way to monitor the people using Huawei, cause they are not US company, and too many people using product from this non-US company.

    Think about iPhone and Samsung user, yeah, looks secure enough, but Apple is US company, and Samsung is US funded company, and US can easily spy on it.

    if Huawei is really that insecure, then why lots of countries, especially European countries, still trust Huawei?

    that's why US don't like Huawei at all, cause they have no way to get in there and get what they want.

        Which country tapped leaders' phone from their allied countries like UK, German, France and Australia etc?
        You just don't get it, do you?

      i don't think it's about spying mate

      it's about crippling huawei's rising domination

      why FBI need to pay Israeli millions of dollars to crack open a terrorist iPhone for intel

          You should watch a press conference from the Huawei boss vs a press conference of Donald Trump. Who would you choose to lead humanity.

            @CalmLemons: You should watch where you have freedom of speech.

            Americans argue with Chinese people about who has freedom of speech…

            American: I can smash Trump at the entrance of the White House and won't be any problem!

            Zhong: I can do the same at Tiananmen Square smash Trump no worry!

      Cisco's devices have been found about 10 back doors over the years in Europe. None has been reported from Huawei's devices. Google about this story if you are really looking for the truth. BTW, if Huawei's devices are insecure, why does USA have to resort to threaten all sorts of things for European countries to ban it?

      It's just another Alstom story engineered by USA goverment to get rid of Huawei.

      Huawei's only sin is they have grown too big, too out of control of USA government.

        If they really developed everything by themselves, no need for them to worry but the true they are base on others tech to develop on.

        But they kept saying how good they are, how high tech they are blah blah blah but they are not.
