tariff the fuck out of all sub par chinese trash
[–] PraiseIPU ago
Sub par? It was just as good for half the price.

Presumably Cisco and Juniper will be next, right? Oh...
[–] JJNova 3 points 10 points 13 points (+13|-3) ago
Why? They keep saying "spying" but that's every device, and the previous claim that it was reporting usage and data was dispelled in independent testing.
This reeks more and more of Apple and Samsung trying to prevent competition in the United States.

Huawei is a branch of Chinese Intel. I can't say more without a dox but it has been proven. Ask yourself why they set up shops with free or discounted phones next to US bases.

This dude is a slanty eyed nigger trying to deflect. It's a fucking distraction. He refuses to differentiate between the US government and Chinese government as if they are the same entity and aren't actually each other's adversaries. His argument is seriously"I don't know why the US government would want to stop spy devices controlled by a communist dictatorship out of the US". Look at the downvoat upvoats, It's almost 100 percent certain there are PLA glow in the darks in this thread. He's a fan of the free market meanwhile huawie president Ren Zhengfei is a high level member of the communist party of China. Not only that huawie directly receives subsidies from the communist Chinese government in exchange for the obvious intelligence purposes of the devices and to bolster their position against Western rival phone manufacturers.

I like it. Ban them for spying, then when people point out that google etc is doing it too, bring the antitrust hammer.

He already fined ZTE after helping "save" them https://money.cnn.com/2018/05/13/technology/business/trump-zte-corporation-china-commerce/index.html
Huawei was always a tough cookie to crack because they're way more capable than other manufacturers and cheaper. I looked at them for GPON services after seeing lots in datacenters of our competitors. But their sales offices are almost all PO boxes with personal gmail accounts. I had a lot of 404 errors navigating their site, especially contact pages. So I never really thought they were with investing in

Were you trying to project my opinion? What in my comment made you think that was the point in my response?

Yet ... Apple is based in China now ... and is allowed free reign.
Someone's playing favourites.
[–] Pwning4Ever 0 points 4 points 4 points (+4|-0) ago
Apple does not have free reign in China. All old models are banned from sale due to copyright shit.
China also needs crapple a lot more than crapple needs China
[–] B3bomber ago
Chinese enforcing Apple copyrights? I gotta see this.

DO IT NOW

I'm using a Huawei mate 10 Pro right now. Tell you exactly why they don't want to sell them here in the US. First thing I did when I turn my phone on? Uninstall Facebook all the Google Suites YouTube. Everything, no carrier bloat and even remove the stock Huawei stuff.
[–] resvserbresb1 ago
Aw it's cute that you think you've removed all that stuff.
[–] pickled ago
Awe, it's cute u think it can't be removed.
[–] CalmRules 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago (edited ago)
Pffff... meanwhile apple allows its users on the app store to freely install Chinese spyware through “social media” like Wechat. If Americans truly cared, then they’d do like the Indians and tell its people to remove all such software. Wechat = Chinese spyware.
Hence, (((Trump/US Gov))) dont give a damn about your privacy. They only care about the ((($))). Deport Americans and their culture of hustling, prison rape, and trans from Europe.

Practically all apps spy on what you do in the app. By default, iOS doesn't allow apps to do much more than that (as opposed to Android which requires rooting and difficult to install 3rd party extensions to somewhat limit spyware behaviour of apps).
For it to really be spyware and monitor you outside of the app, they'd have to have special permissions granted by Apple.
Are there any indications that Apple grants WeChat special spying privilleges such as they did with the Uber app?
[–] Cat-hax 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
Might as well ban everything made in China, because it all has tracking stuff in it
[–] 1F4A9 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
Indeed, and other countries should ban US stuff because it has tracking stuff in it.

And yet the NSA is still allowed to spy on Americans...
And yet the Facebook is still allowed to spy on Americans...
And yet the Google/Youtube/Alphabet is still allowed to spy on Americans...
etc...

NSA spying is what's bringing the jews down.
They're going to be around for a while because of that.
[–] 1F4A9 1 point 0 points 1 point (+1|-1) ago (edited ago)
NSA spying happens in coorperation with the jews. Look at how American tech companies have a lot of development outsourced to Israel.
