Multiple governments have now blacklisted Huawei, which Huawei seems very confused by. The best explanation I've heard so far about why this move makes sense for western countries came from Rob Joyce of NSA. He basically said that just like Kaspersky in Russia, the reason you can't trust Huawei is that it's a Chinese company, and even if they're not already infiltrated by the Chinese government, they can be at any moment without anyone knowing that it happened. And there's nothing Huawei or anyone else could do to stop it. Strong argument. Link2/3 of Android antivirus apps are hot garbage. Gasp. LinkDARPA is building an open-source, secure voting system.
