A competitor under full control of Chinese government that owes its birth to a full copy of Cisco firmware deposited by Cisco with said government as a condition for entering Chinese market.
That Huawei or is there another one?
- jpgvm 4y agoTechnology transfer isn't illegal, Cisco was happy with the commercial arrangement. More importantly Motorola before them which is who really kickstarted the Chinese electronics manufacturing sector. I wish it was more common actually. Imagine if we shared technology more freely in exchange for reciprocal benefits. For instance Australia (my home country) has a wealth of natural resources yet very little high-tech. We should leverage China's dependency on our raw resources to obtain technology transfer to enrich our country in a mutually beneficial way.
