It's a China vs. the world issue. China has been spying on everyone, for years. Political, military, commercial, makes no difference.
You can easily find examples where you can replace China with the US. And now with the current American leadership I can't say personally that I trust the US more than China at this point.

Perhaps Huawei will assist in the development of microg ( https://microg.org/ ) - a free (as in freedom) drop-in replacement for Google Play Services.
Huawei will never do that, the very concept of free or open-source is absolutely alien to them. But they could develop some kind of their own Play Services, compatible with Google.
white people have a way of saying incredibly insulting, demeaning things about non-whites in a way that it is acceptable in common discourse.

Google have no choice but to comply with US law. This is now going to make a load of existing US owned (Huawei manufactured) devices less secure unless an exemption is agreed for things like software security updates. Not only that, the ban encourages a long term move away from US-based tech as alternatives are needed within China. This new tech will ultimately be available worldwide, but no longer owned or controlle…

How do you even know he or she is white? Why racialize a comment in this manner?
