As I mentioned in another comment this is a risk that exists for every supplier that you haven't got full control over. As someone else further mentioned, the UK has setup an evaluation centre with Huawei where GCHQ experts check Huawe

I am claiming that the UK has to be realistic. The whole security story around Huawei is largely overblown and driven by the US's increasing realisation that they won't be the undisputed top dog for long. The UK is not in that sit

The UK is in the midst of Brexit and is trying to increase trade with China. In addition, the Chinese seem the only ones able or willing to supply nuclear plants to the country... They cannot afford to fall for the US-led hysteria.

There is always a risk from buying technology from suppliers you have no full control over. This is Brexit. The UK is trying not to depend on the EU too much either and are actively trying to diversify.

Referendums are seldom used in the UK. This one was not legally binding. Legally a referendum only has the effect that Parliament decided. In this case: none. Parliament is sovereign and it voted to leave the EU. Its decision was informed b

Twitter is no more suitable to having conversations than SMS are. This is a case of trying to force a use case on a platform that isn't designed for it. Edit: It's getting very tiring to receive downvotes at every comment.

The government will be in touch to help you correct your thoughts.

Yes, they should know it when they see it. And if they happen to make a mistake the government will helpfully tell them what to correct.

The People's Republic of China should have accepted that the Republic of China still existed and could be referred to as such. This would have made clear to the international that this is a East/West Germany or South/North Ko

I'm living this 'discussion' now. The reactions to my comment are absolutely appalling.

by entity345 8y ago
Now, that's pure bad faith. The point is that that has absolutely nothing to do with the discussion. I find amusing that those so vocal against that period of Chinese history use the exact same methods to destroy critical discussion.

China is extremely homogeneous on the points I raised. I did not claim that they were the cause of the drop but simply that these are factors that may also be at play.

The Pi Zero is at £4.66 here in the UK (so $6) including 20% VAT.

Well it says that it must be mixed with 40% of Asian ethanol. Let's say you're an American company and you have a contract to supply 1 million litres to a Chinese customer. If you want to avoid tariffs you now have to use only 600

"Although China slapped retaliatory tariffs up to 70 percent on U.S. ethanol shipments, the fuel can still legally enter China tariff-free if it arrives blended with at least 40 percent Asian-produced fuel" Right, so the American

From the slides linked above they are not using LTE, but something loosely based on it. So they may be reusing some PHY parts like the OFDM but the rest seems custom.
