                              Unless USA bans all Chinese and even Korean phones, this will eventually splits phone ecosystem into 2 biggest players; China vs USA.
                              Personally i think its good on the consumer end especially if people are open to new things instead of being stuck at old tech/practices.
                              But i don't think it will happen smoothly as u can already see the potential losers are doing their best to twat this.

                                Too bad Google didn't like, voluntarily left world's 1/7th population in for Baidu to serve and thrive. Who gets the last laugh?

                                Spying backdoors in 5G infrastructure equipment allegations on Huawei, by US Govt? I think exactly opposite is the case. US Govt. can't get Huawei or ZTE to join any PRISM like program and create backdoors for them.

Some people on this platform want to portray a picture that western countries don't control or have influence on the companies or corporations in those borders which is very far from the truth.
                                  I'm not a big fun of China but trying to paint it like it's the biggest evil on earth is not fair.
                                  Yes most western countries are better but not perfect in some areas like human rights but that does not make them the best so as to start claiming a higher moral ground.

                                    I wish they just merge all the separate stores into one and make it open source so countries and companies targeted by Google sanction don't have to fear

                                      Just wondering why there is no mention of Huawei's participation on the GDSA site.

                                        Anonymous, 07 Feb 2020But the US has banned US companies from trading with Huawei... moreWell there's government control everywhere in the world. Banning trading with Huawei is a decision by the US government, but that's in reaction to the government control on companies like Huawei by China. It's not that fair by just blaming the US government for doing what all governments do.
