Precautions against Huawei warranted? (Poll)
People thought a poll would be better so here it is! Do you think America’s stance on Huawei is valid?
Who cares. They make awesome phones for the money. So they stole IP from Apple while doing it? Cry me a freaking river. Until someone proves with code or logs that they are "calling home" this whole story is hoax to keep competitor away.
all companies having ties with chinese govt need extra scrutiny
In a report released by the U.S. Permanent Select Committee on Intelligencein 2012, Huawei and ZTE Corp. were tagged as potential security threats. The report questioned Huawei’s ties with the Communist Party and — after multiple interviews including a sit-down with Ren himself — it said that Huawei failed to properly explain that relationship. The first major issue erupted in 2003, when Cisco Systems Inc. sued Huawei, accusing the Chinese company of infringing on its patents and illegally copying source code used in its routers and switches. The next year, Huawei removed the contested code, manuals and command-line interfaces and the case was dropped. Other accusations that Huawei stole intellectual property from U.S. companies surfaced. Motorola named it as a co-defendant in a lawsuit, while T-Mobile US Inc. alleged that Huawei stole technology from its U.S. headquarters in Washington state. Earlier this year, Trump blocked Broadcom Ltd.’s hostile takeover bid for Qualcomm Inc. following a recommendation by a U.S. agency that vets deals for national security risks. The concerns over the deal were said to stem from Broadcom’s ties to Huawei.
