I'm not talking about just stealing the software, but the hardware that goes along with it as well. US companies could not get away with such a blatant ripoff. Many big foreign and domestic companies steal IP from other companies. The big issue for me is how cavalier Huawei has been about it, and no one on any level over there did anything about it. It's like someone stealing from you then waving the loot in front of your face in public, and the authorities doing nothing about it because they're tied in. It's a different level IMO. Plus, I'd rather buy from a US thief than a foreign one - given those are the only two choices. On Sunday, March 20, 2016, Faisal Imtiaz < [email protected] > wrote: I agree with Josh. I don't believe that there is any Global Tech company who has not compromised ethics at one point in time or another....

All I am trying to say is, everyone is entitled to their opinions as to who they do business with and who they don't... If ethics and morality was measure, and one was being honest and un-biased, then one would find doing business with any of the big folks to be a problem ! Yes, Hauwie stole code from Cisco, and Cisco stole shit from someone else ... http://www.ipnav.com/blog/jury-says-cisco-stole-technology-must-pay-70m/... .. .what is new ?

I could say the same about many successful companies - they do what they can get away with, and what makes their shareholders the most money. No different than a company buying one smaller company that had a good product just to fire all the employees and kill it. Or companies that force their staff to train their H1B or overseas replacements (Disney, HP, etc).

Let's flip this argument for a moment... Do you think that Cisco / Alcatel / Lucent / etc etc don't have some sort of backdoor built into their products for the US/EU governments ? Why are you worried about an international gov. snooping in your tiny piss-any network, when any gov. can already do so ? Do business with who you like, and don't with who you don't like.... it's totally your choice.... But at the end of the day, when the Gov is involved, irrespective of which one... you have to bring your own jar of Vaseline, and they don't kiss in the morning !

But it’s a little humorous reading how ZTE copied the tricks of an unnamed company that is clearly Huawei.

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. On Mar 19 , 2016 6:30 PM, "Jason McKemie" < [email protected] > wrote: <blockquote> I'd tend to agree, hence my concern.

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.
