It seems that Huawei is the US hostage in the China-US trade negotiations. I wonder who the US company will be that China will decides to screw over in retaliation?

It is. Although I strongly believe Trump was going to use Huawei card after the trade negotiation. By that time, US would have had a good deal, and Huawei is a step to gain a lot more. Luckily for China, he has been forced to show this card now.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Just wanted to add that IEEE is much more than a standards body. Lot's of conferences are held by IEEE.

Oh yes. I am an IEEE member of reasonably long standing and this just complicates things for everyone, particularly for IEEE chapters in other countries where Huawei may have a presence and are active participants locally.

It gets more complicated when considering Huawei is also a major sponsor to a variety of research conferences, open source projects, etc.

I wonder what is ACM's stand on this?

We need to kill Huawei first, with some collateral damages to others, so that Huawei cannot do bad things to us in the future, even though there is no evidence or court ruling that Huawei is hacking anyone at this moment.

Last time it was Iraq's WMD/washing powder.

Apple, most likely. They seem like the easiest target.

Actually it's Boeing.
