Has "Huaweied" entered our common lexicon already?

The strange thing is that there’s already a word for it: “extradited”.
Or "shanghaied" for ironic flair.
Seems it has.
Don't think so. I'm having a hard time figuring out what it actually means. No urbandictionary entry, and the only other time it seems to have been used was another HN thread last month.
In case you actually don't know (not an insult, just not sure)...

The CFO of Huawei was arrested in Canada for extradition to the US.
