Years ago I saw independent analysis of Huawei gear. It was a shit show of vulnerabilities. That on its own was enough for me to conclude that I don't want any of this gear in critical data paths. Having exploitable vulnerabilities is a tactic the NSA has used to enter equipment. Whether Huawei was simply incompetent or they left security holes open on purpose doesn't really matter to me. I'd prefer not to have 'em. Also I'd prefer to have equipment from companies I can take over if needed. 🥹

Your data has been breeched 10 times over already from American companies not giving a shit about securing it.
