https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/huawei-threat-to-the-us/ https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/huawei-threat-to-the-us... But Huawei is incredibly opaque – at least by Western standards. Ren’s still there (now about 70 years old) and still has veto power, but rarely makes public statements. He attributes Huawei’s success to collective leadership. That leadership? Huawei won’t say. National champions aren’t state-owned businesses, but they typically get market protection, financial support — sometimes as direct funding, but more often tax breaks, subsidies, low-interest loans, and government contracts — and even diplomatic help. That means the Chinese government could have a significant influence on Huawei, since so many purse-strings lead back to Beijing. And the company has a reputation for playing fast-and-loose with intellectual property: in 2003 Cisco accused Huawei of copying its source code and documentation – all the way down to typos. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ren_Zhengfei#Communist_Party_and_military_ties https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ren_Zhengfei#Communist_Party_a...
