Huawei 18:10 - Jan 28 with 4399 views | union_jack | Has the UK done the right thing? We’ve not bent over for the US, the results of which we will experience soon. Nor have we given China carte blanche. Boris had a very difficult decision to make and I think (hope) he’s got it right. The big surprise to me is that neither the UK or US have the same amount of expertise in 5g infrastructure that China do. | ![](/images/avatars/8799.gif) |

Huawei on 18:30 - Jan 28 with 3655 views | jackmorsel | It's not that at all, (they do, but the UK and US do not make the network components). It's purely the fact that it's ridiculously cheap, compared to the other vendors Nokia and Ericsson. Plus Huawei are offering added services thrown in, i.e. they will design, install commission and manage the whole process for free or a negligible fee. In the past Ericsson and Nokia charged a pretty penny for this as well. | ![](/images/avatars/11820.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

It’s more important than that though. Huawei are a company ‘run’ by the Chinese government and them trying to sell me a wok is the least of my problems. It’s them having access to classified information which the security of the country depends on us what I am concerned about. Hopefully the 35% cap on involvement will prevent this. | ![](/images/avatars/8799.gif) |

They aren't run by the government though, the USA does insist they have evidence of government control or undue influence. The question is who do we trust in this, the USA or China and I'd say neither, they both have their own agendas. China is trying to increase it's influence by embedding itself in other countries in a business sense. It's been doing it in Africa for a while, they have spent billions in Africa, investments and sub contracts coming to nearly 300 biilion between 05 and 18 but that has come with a price. Tney are tapping into Africa's massive potential but at the same time gaining what the USA sees as undue influence. https://www.ft.com/content/9f5736d8-14e1-11e9-a581-4ff78404524e On the other hand Trump wants everyone to kowtow to him, do as he wants, be grateful to him and love him to bits for screwing us over. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Huawei on 22:13 - Jan 28 with 3407 views | dameedna | China owns vast amounts of land and mineral resources in Australia. China bought the Channel Nine HQ in Willoughby Sydney. Huawei networks are a real threat as building a comms network in Australia could tap into the HQJOC in Canberra which is the Aus/US military base. After the Chanel 9 purchase a few years back the Finance Minister has sought to limit China buy ins. The UK and Europe sees Huawei as a threat. At the same time consultants such as Aurecon will work for H with some information gained from competitors. It is probably inevitable that China in a hundred years will expand globally. Hopefully with a new attitude. | ![](/images/avatars/9547.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Huawei on 07:20 - Jan 29 with 3234 views | dameedna | The phones are fine. The issue is with the mobile network infrastructure. Once you give property away to China they will take advantage and install technology that may not in the national interest. When was the last time you bought real estate in Beijing?

They have posed the wrong question of GCHQ. If the intelligence chiefs are quizzed on their ability to counter potential threats what would expect them to say? Of course they are going to express confidence in their agencies. Ask them instead as to the advisability of allowing communist China a major stake in Britain’s national infrastructure and you’d get the same answer that Tom Tugendhat was giving all over the media yesterday, that it was comparable to giving “permission to let the fox in the chicken coop.” This is lunacy. | ![](/images/avatars/8709.gif) |

I'm not sure what's worse: entertaining this as a good idea, or the defence of it by people who have spend the last 5 years calling Corbyn a red and saying he'd be a threat to national security. The later may well be true, but the cognitive dissonance on display is something else. The whole point of the internet of things is that EVERYTHING is linked and increasingly dependent on those data connections. Why would you hand that over to a company with the links that Huawei has? Lunacy indeed. | ![](/images/avatars/21105.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I can only speak of their phones but I bought an Honor (Huawei sub-brand) 18 months ago for £220 and it's by far and away the greatest piece of technology I've ever purchased. On a £10 a month sim only contract, I've saved an absolute fortune and the phone competes with anything the latest Samsung or Apple has to offer | ![](/images/avatars/8654.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
