I really don't see the point of trying to prevent shipments of telecom/IT/networking equipment to Iran, or punishing anybody for selling telecom/IT/networking gear to Iran:


1) If people in Iran really want the stuff they will simply arrange a way to buy it from Dubai.

2) Isn't it a good thing to ship any sort of computer/networking/ISP gear into Iran? There's a very active community of Iranians who have come up with local Farsi language documents/training guides and information on how to run Tor, how to get around government internet censorship, move VPN traffic through their ISPs' blackholes. Iranians want to read unfettered media. The US government has a whole Farsi language division funded from the Voice of America/BBG (Broadcasting Board of Governors) that is trying to reach Iranians. There are a shitload of Iranians that want to use Facebook, Whatsapp, Skype, etc. More communication with the outside world is good.

        Although expecting Chinese companies to obey our sanctions
        against Iran and not use tricks to get around them is probably
        unrealistic. But it’s a little humorous reading how ZTE copied
        the tricks of an unnamed company that is clearly Huawei.

        Some of it is bull, but the blatant duplication of Cisco is
        indisputable.

        Has anybody taken a look at the number of government employees
        China has by any chance? What about the number of DoD and
        general federal workforce? Do those members of the workforce -
        do their policies and beliefs fall 100% in line with things
        the government as a whole says or does?

        You guys realize that half the shit you've heard about Huawei
        was bullshit put for by our government who were acting as
        mouthpieces for Cisco which was later RECANTED by our own
        government in just a few short years and then used in
        FEDERALLY FUNDED PROJECTS, right?

        I'm curious if maybe Google, Amazon, and Facebook have done
        anything "bad" in your eyes... Since they have direct
        connections to the CIA and NSA. They have an incredible amount
        of data and control.

        What's that, the NSA has intercepted routing and switching
        products mid shipment and modified them before sending them
        out? What's that, the NSA was caught weakening encryption
        protocols, the Linux kernel, and put backdoors in equipment
        from companies like Fortigate, Cisco, and Juniper - putting
        our own countries citizens and world governments at risk in
        the process?

        I'm not saying that Huawei is any kind of saint, or that they
        haven't done shitty things in the past - my problem is you and
        others are insinuating that every employee Huawei has ever had
        is some kind of scumbag while simultaneously holding up a
        different mirror to our own  government and its employees.

        For fukes sake get some goddamn perspective.

            I'd tend to agree, hence my concern. I'm not sure that
            just having one of the lead people from Huawei is any
            connection other than the obvious. This person could have
            had issues with the company as well, and left as a result.

                I'm assuming that $1/month is for some kind of cloud
                based EPC.... you can most likely buy your own
                instead, but that seems to be one of the more costly
                parts of doing LTE.

                Good interview.  A couple things I'm wondering /
                concerned about though.  First of all, what's with the
                $1/month/CPE?  I realize it isn't a ton of money, just
                seems like an expense that shouldn't be there.  Also,
                I'm a little wary of the Huawei tie-in - although I
                haven't researched the specific "fellow" that they're
                talking about.
