Sabotage. Backdoors. Loss of control.
Because we don’t want the Chinese Secret Service to have access to all of our communications?
It’s cute how the author pretends to believe that this Chinese company is some private enterprise working for a simple profit.
Control the network 1
Control access device technology 2
Watch Apple get locked out of market 3
Tamny’s right - we know from the example of the liquidation of Airbus as a business entity that a government-backed corporation could never compete in the marketplace. That is why Boeing pretty much owns the market for large commercial jets, and Airbus exists only in the history books.
Author must have gotten 30 pieces of silver from Xi. This isn’t just a product, It’s infrastructure, and hence is a national security issue.
The author did seem to skip over that, didn’t he?
Just ppl like you who need to ask the question!
The USA backdoor-ed into most foreign governments because we were the people who produced the telephone switching equipment. Really want to trust the Chinese with the 21st century equivalent?
Curious how much money this author was paid by China to write this garbage?
Yeah. You can almost hear the whiny, nasally voice of the Leftist saying “What do conservatives have against Huawei? Aren’t they always going on and on about how the Free Market always outperforms the government?”
Sure.
Except I will take the US military over a home grown and paid for Army any day of the week. And if we allow the open market to create something, we at least have some protections from being ill used in the process.
Communist China has none of that. In fact, they have been engaging in government directed open economic warfare against the West for decades.
I believe if you look up the term “willful ignorance” in the dictionary, John Tamny’s mug appears as an example pic.
Free trade and open borders are not Conservative. They are destructive. It is a Libertarian globalist position.
Every piece of tech assembled in China is a spying device for the Chicoms.
Partisan Media Shills update.
When the writer thinks the USPS is still funded by the gov’t he has no credibility.
Other than controlling the networking, device technology and locking out american companies what have the chinese ever done to us. (Monty Python life of Bryan)
It's about China's real objective of using 5G penetration as a future weapon to control/extort/bankrupt/attack nations that adopt their systems. This moron doesn't get that his point is akin to someone asking why we don't let Russia install our nuclear missiles if they do it more cheaply.
Try a search for:
Huawei Iran
If the USA believes its sanction program is being violated, there will be consequences.
The USA is trying to reduce the danger Iran presents to Israel, Europe and the USA.
Don’t mess with Trump’s efforts to ensure a peaceful and safe world.
On top of all your points, this gasbag author and his good buddy Fred Smith don't mention that Smith would put the Post Office out of business with low low prices - but that in three years you'd be forced to give half a pint of blood to get anything mailed, once the "inconvenient and incompetent" Posties were out of the way.
Just look at your cable bill to see the effect of a local market monopoly.
BTW - I've actually gotten a bill from Fedex for a Census mailer (by accident). Was mailing in a 9x11 flat pak with 4-5 time sheets for my crew (just pieces of paper), and Fedex accidentally sent me the bill.
$30.00
Fred Smith sez: Cha-CHING!!!
