China has disallowed their citizens from using Google, Netflix, Instagram, but everyone's up in arms over Trump stopping the US from doing business with Huawei. I really don't understand this.

- Jyaif 7y agoChina is not competitive in tech right now, so it needs to block foreign companies in order to have local companies have a chance of emerging, and one day becoming competitive. On the other hand, the US is super competitive. They must do as much business with China as possible in order to discourage any new company from spawning over there, because it would create competition. In other words, Trump is doing exactly the opposite of what is good for the US.
- majia 7y agoChina only bans foreign companies in its domestic markets. Trump is dictating whom third parties can do business with. For example, European firms have to cut normal business ties with huawei, otherwise they will be sanctioned by the US. And the US isn't paying for the cost of breaking their contract with Huawei.
