ZTE & Huawei technologies are just Chinese companies there software more so on the Chinese side the main reasons the us doesn't like them much is because of lack of us built-in backdoors/spyware the us does a lot of surveillance another reason is there strong competition in the market for us brands like apple iPhone which the us is so proud of yet only 6gb ram is just sad for a $1000 plus phone

The us is also rather restricted in the way they allow any Chinese companies too use us designed technologies and Tsmc it's unfortunate this kind of gate keeping is being done by the us it's basically handlecapping the competition or not allowing them too make the hardware & software how they really want it too be as a byproduct this hurts the consumer as the us is holding everyone else back and price fixing the market too keep pricing high and core's too a limited number and speed that all Chinese companies have too follows such strict standards for there own devices

Am sure it's possible Chinese brands can be a security problem as they could interfere with us networks but it's us security problem more so than the customer problem

    Welcome to the 60s and the cold war!

      Very good. Keep up the good job FCC.

        Onis, 03 Jul 2020Alex was right. He just pointed on current tech situation. ... moreJust saying someone is right does not make it so. He/she was very much wrong on many points, so much so he had to start personal attacks. Personal attacks like that only come from someone that has exhausted their arguments and know that they lost. Duck however was polite and clear with his points.

On the other hand its obviously that Duck doesn't understand how free market works. That is not bad thing, cause situation is very complicated, and Alex really have tech knowledge.

If your argument is so thin that you have to revert to personal attacks perhaps your arguments/comments dont hold water..........

If Huawei lose market share, there will come some another Chinese company, like Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo, Realme , or some another. Chinese tech dominance is unstoppable, and u can't write here all day. It's obviously that u hate Chinese tech companies, I'm not blind. But some guy without market knowledge can't stop them. Probably someone in your family have Chinese product to. Now, stop blaming yourself, your not interesting anymore. Zz.

You can cut that fantasy that everything is fine, because it isn't. Keep trying to sell your rootkits with lies on the internet and you'll just keep losing countries to sell it in.

Europe, which are in a middle betwen US and Chinese influence, are more for Chinese now, cause they promoting free market economy. Capital isnt enough today, country must have techonolgy, and that China have now.

                                        Mark, 02 Jul 2020Tik Tok is Tik Tok and not Huawei.The US has yet to provide... more1. This report has nothing to do with new vs. old smartphones. The FCC believes 5g tech will be used by the Chinese government. I didn't read anything about phones.
                                        2. The U.S. does not have to prove anything. It is classified information and they are not going to compromise their sources for you, myself or anyone else to debate on message boards.

                                        I don't ever recall one person arguing about the manufacturer responsible for their cell provider's 4g tech. Not one person. This is a argument mainly by Huawei fans and nationalist. Average Americans don't care about Huawei or this finding. When I get stuck on the train (which is more times than not), I don't blame the U.S. government for not building an infrastructure to import bullet trains from China. I blame the MTA. It will be years before the average American knows the difference between what Huawei offers vs. 5g tech from Ericsson or Nokia.
