I'm a big fan of Huawei products. Incredible build quality and reasonable prices. I personally don't care if the CCP spies on me so it's not a big issue for me.

The way I see it is NSA have backdoors, Russian, British, Australia and Canadian etc agencies will also have backdoors, what's one more?

This is a dumb perspective at best and a fatal perspective at worst.

Go on, you can't call me dumb and not go into more detail

Nah, you aren't dumb. I think the opinion is dumb, but I'm sure you have reasons for believing the way you do. I suspect it comes from a sense of hopelessness and feeling a lack of control which I can empathize with but do not share. I simply don't like to see people roll over and give in to such thought because of the types of awful people who have power in this world. This mindset is submissive to those powers and that irks me to anger. That submission boosts the power they already hold. But no, I hold no negative opinions toward you as a person and I apologize if it came across that way, that's likely my fault.

It's not that I've given in, I just simply do not care. But I respect the right to a users privacy and will happily fight to get that right for people. I personally just do not care however. I don't really know why, It's just not something that bothers me
