Sure, maybe policy-wise, but common-sense wise the argument doesn't hold up at all. Google's minimal loss from business with Huawei is nothing compared to Huawei compromising the 5G infrastructure of the US.
- tsss 7y agoThe only question is: Do the people/companies who will be affected by compromised 5G have enough agency and bribe money to out do Google?
- throwaway34241 7y agoI don't understand how those things are related. What does forcing Huawei to fork Android on their cell phones in China and Europe (by totally forbidding them from doing business with Google) have to do with 5G infrastructure in the US? If the US is so concerned, can't they just ban them from 5G infrastructure? Why is it necessary to fork Android?
