Huawei exec: US government attacks unjustified

nonama, 19 May 2020Yes definitely that hacking info should be made global so t... moreI'm pretty sure the intelligence community already knows.
They have the proof, and have been in communication with Huawei for a long time now. However, things have not improved they have only deteriorated. And it's much moreso the aggression and arrogance from CCP-backed Huawei.
By the way, the USA has it's own Huawei and it is Cisco Telecommunications.
They were also caught putting backdoors on equipment. And frankly, they should be reprimanded. But the Cisco issue is much smaller than the Huawei one (locally vs internationally).
It is the public which is blind to the details.
We have reports from Germany, Italy, Sweden, and other countries, but never any details.
So doesn't mean the USA is lying, and it doesn't mean the proof doesn't exist.
...besides, if I was Huawei I would say "we promise to have a secure network, and no backdoors, no spying, and here's my plan to ensure those promises will be kept and reported by a third-party security firm, etc etc".
....furthermore, if I was Huawei I would say "we are not CCP, and to show our independence we will fire all employees associated with the CCP, have no monetary link to the CCP, and we will reject any request from the CCP government unless it is right, fair, and is a court-ordered matter which requires 24h before release, and we will inform the parties who's data is affected, etc etc".
...those actions show initiative and responsibility, things that are expected of Huawei and they're refusing to acknowledge. So it's very difficult to feel sympathy for them, with their previous actions and current stance on the matter.

q, 19 May 2020The rule they didnt follow is "Government censorship". They... moreBut that's their country's law and a company should comply with it just like the way companies in the US are complying with the rule which require them to obtain a licence to trade with Huawei, they may not like it but it's a law for the moment.
What makes Google special to be exception to the requirement?
By the way I don't agree that's it's a good law but it's their law and people should learn to respect other people's laws.

Instead what we have now are accusations without tangible proof which in the end seem like an attempt by some shady entity using the US administration as a cover in a proxy war with Huawei

kiasunkiasi, 19 May 2020hahahaha, try harder... the burden of proof is usually on ... moreI think the biggest issue is not that spying thing, that the chinese spy is as standard as a smartphone having a display. The problem is that china has been stealing us-tec for ages now and that is what trump did say. I mean literally everything the usa produces that get just a tiny bit popular is copied two weeks later by chinese, they have been stealing their patents, technology, designes and even names sometimes, that is undeniable they do this since how long now? not only with usa but all of europe and japan or south korrea, once they see something new they buy it, tear it apart, copy it and sell it instead of coming up with a tech of their own, best example would be BOE, I ve read a wonderful article how BOE actively has been stealing Samsung and LG's Display Technology and even recruited some of their employees, they try everything and will never stop, trump is doing the right thing imo

... moreIf US has any proof of Huawei spying, they should make it public, so the whole world could ban Huawei. Because their equipment is used everywhere, literally.
No proof means it's simply a game of politics.

maybe huawei should stop putting backdoors in.
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=Huawei
"Finite reviewed more than 1.5 million files embedded in 9,936 firmware images supporting 558 Huawei enterprise networking products. The review found hard-coded backdoor credentials," (https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/jun/26/chinas-back-doors-in-huawei-devices/ )
"The Dutch AIVD intelligence service reported in May that Huawei equipment used by a Dutch telecommunications carrier contained back doors. In January, the African Union reported that Huawei equipment at its headquarters was sending confidential information to China. Vodafone, a large European phone company, also has identified hidden back doors in software inside Huawei products that could provide unauthorized access to networks in Italy."
There's a million more. One can argue they just have really shitty code until you hit the one where they literally embed the backdoor credentials in the firmware, which is used to remotely access your device by huawei. They didn't even try to hide it. I'm sure they'll be more careful in the newer phones. Xiaomi and some others had the exact same scandals, but apparently it's hard for GSMA to even look these things up (it takes more effort than reading a press release from the chinese government I guess, and you wouldnt want to stop getting free huawei phones now would you...)
Call me when Japan or the USA has such obvious backdoors in their phones, I'll wait...

This is so simple. Huawei is an arm of the chinese communist party. This party cannot be trusted and treat people terribly aiming to silence their own citizens. Need proof? Nobody can talk about the coronavirus over there and any negativity of the government. They have no freedom of speech and I am lucky to live in a part of the world where saying one thing bad about the goverment doesn't cost my life or endanger my family
If the chinese communist party controls the world then we're doomed
I'm ok with huawei only if this communist party doesn't exist

need is mother of invention, i trust Chinese will develop better tech.
most products manufactured/developed in China already have superior quality.
i bought Chinese only brands for many years now and have 100% positive experience.

What would be a doozy is if Huawei bailed out Softbank and bought majority shares. That would be turning the tables.

This comment section is the saddest thing available on this website. I thought there'd be some respectful and smart conversations going on, but this... I guess there are still some educated comments here (in both pro/anti).

NotAnOpinion, 19 May 2020Where's your proof that the US government has no proof? ... moreThe proof is literally the fact that US has shown no legitimate proofs so far, I mean this is some major shit and they are the one accusing, if they have proof they are supposed it publish it. But all of the claims and accusations afaik were all based on allegations.
