I was surprised how well the negative campain against Huawei has worked in the US (justified or not).
I was talking to a none tech friend from the US and when I mentioned Huawei he went on a rant how they are Chinese spy devices.
Meanwhile here in Europe Huawei phone are quite popular and sold through carriers.
- Someguywhatever 8y agoI think they are also popular in Canada. You can get various versions of the Huawei P20 through carriers here. I don't regard them as spy devices. I think it's mostly a US thing.
- Steltek 8y agoTo raise the other kerfuffle du jour, how is Huawei going to fare when these findings meet the GDPR? Where is the informed consent to shipping all of this PII to who knows where? And in cleartext, without even the slightest effort at protections?
- barrongineer 8y agoIt's my understanding that he's reverse engineering the Chinese version of the phone rather than the international version.
