#4> Don't think about this in terms of just governments tracking you. Consider if you have any work emails containing company secrets in them. Consider if you have 2FA apps installed that you would use to unlock or change your work password. And since it was almost certainly the Chinese Intel/Military that helps Huawei and other companies, you can be sure that whatever information Huawei gets access to doesn't need to just help them out, but might help any other company the Chinese government wants to see succeed.

Don't buy Huawei hardware. Their incentives to help their customers is far less than their incentives to help their government.

Yes. Buy Apple or Google's phones instead. They would never leak customer data for the US government. Oh wait...

#7As revealed by Snowden, US can compel tech companies to help their intel services too.
Instead of a total ban based on how friendly we feel towards certain countries, a trust but verified approach should be adopted. Establish comprehensive, robust and transparent security requirements and regulations for foreign tech firms to comply and allow them to compete on a level field. Review source code and hardware design for critical components, like what UK and Canada are doing.
A competent government should be able to achieve security without imposing unnecssary costs on consumers and companies using foreign suppliers.

#8It seems more and more that the citizen of the world has to agree to the sovereign will of the nation where their desirous objects are built.
Its getting kind of like I wonder if the world will respond to these things by bringing the tech local. Could I grow my own products closer to the border, where inspection and compliance is much more trustworthy? Well, its a European question .. perhaps it would happen. Perhaps also, the balkanisation of technological manufacturing prowess in the European states, counter to this, might just blow the whole thing out of proportion, too.

One government is vastly more transparent than the other. One company is government subsidized and the others are not.
Hard to make a genuine privacy comparison with a straight face.
