    AnonD-928247, 15 May 2020don't want to get into a argument how I see it. Trump admin... moreJust stop iPhone sales in China,. Instead of stopping Foxconn,. Also for sure if Foxconn also asked to stop production and China government also make a new rule same as what US trying,. If china stop the raw material supply to companies which export to US,. That also will hurt US a lot,. If I am not wrong I read a article before china have many natural sources which is required for a chip and or electronic material products used in mobiles phones and laptops.

      "Last year, the Department of Commerce put Huawei on the so-called entity list, which effectively banned US companies from selling hardware and software to Huawei"

      It seems to only be Google who aren't allowed to work with them though? What other US companies aren't allowed to work with them? For example why the Google Playstore won't work on new Huawei phones the Amazon Appstore will so I've heard

        Huawei is working hard to control the telecommunication industry, it is only a matter of time before they compete with Cisco, HP, and Dell in the networks field so those companies should be careful, as soon as China refine the technology they will make it hard for those US companies to do business in China.

                          I'm calling it: when China retaliates, Trump will give his delusional speech on how China isn't playing fair, that nobody could ever have seen how YUUUUUGE the effect would have on MURICAN FREEDOM AND MUH PRECIOUS MURICAN ECONOMY, and then somehow downplay all of this and make himself look smart for having "done the right choice."

                            Goof ole' Trump. That's why I'm glad to be in Europe

                              "Make America great again", said the funny President of US.

                              Indeed, we can already see how great the US is today: a huge unemployment, closing commercial borders with a half of the world, a coron@virus epidemic devastating the country, the American economy falling by 11.2% ... great Mr. President !!! Follow this way !!! "Everybody does it wrong except us" !!!
