#13So if a Chinese telecom wants to do business globally, it has to exclude all CCP members and avoid state intelligence personals all together?

That seems like a good way to build trust with citizens outside of China. I believe that a wide portion of people in Western Europe and the US are distrustful of the Chinese government so excluding those individuals is a positive.

#17so the take is do not have a job before working for Huawei. If there is someone working for American company before joining Huawei, American government is linked to Huawei :D

The keyword here is “former”. In the Huawei scenario, a lot of them seem to be active intelligence officials, not former ones.
When I hear the arguments against China and their tech companies, I don't have a problem believing them, however I do not expect anything less from the USA.
Remember Snowden? I'm simply assuming that Facebook, Google, Apple, Cisco or any other US tech company are tapped by the US 3 letter agencies. There were some reveleations on that(PRISMA) but it's probably just tip of the iceberg.
And now the Chinese. So what?

The part of the article before the paywall suggests former intelligence employees, not current ones.
In any case this is obviously fuzzy, but frankly this is not transparent either in the West.

Someone should tell this to MongoDB which took funding from CIA.
