The consequences of installing spyware on your devices and trying to spy on the US.
5 comments

The US spies on the entire world and does the exact same thing (except on a much larger scale). 2013 wasn't that long ago, surely people haven't forgotten the Snowden revelations.

Not to mention there is no public evidence of Huawei doing this -- but we have mountains of evidence of the NSA doing it! Hell, the NSA actually hacked into Huawei's internal infrastructure before[1].

I'm not sure how to take your comment. Are you implying that spying on other countries is ok? Or that US has so much control that it should not be messed with?

Both are bad, right?

Seriously? How many backdoors has the CIA/NSA put in place? Did you forget all of the stuff Snowden leaked?
I'll just leave this here. The US has been spying on the world forever, but what we are seeing here, is that if you want to be a truly global organisation of any kind, then the US is the place you don't want to be setting up in.
