I find the term “oppresive” to be more and more difficult to get a handle on when everything is on a spectrum now. People draw the line somewhere that puts them in the “non-appressive” camp, and justify it in so many ways (“you can’t compare because the other side does really bad things”), but it tends to hide how the lines are much more murky, the “oppressive” side is supported from the other countries, which also look at it like a live experiment to see how far they could get away with it. Before Huawei it was european or US companies that where eyeing the market, and I feel like Huawei just happened to win the bids so we can now point the finger at them.
