I certainly never suggested Huawei was more or less dangerous than any of the establishments you listed.

This world has become an information bank, and everyone is trying to break in, for various reasons; some want you to buy their crap, some want to know what you are doing in your meeting. This is now the world we live in.

The question is how do people want to protect their information?

Some want nothing and post their daily movements on FB FFS.

Others have firewalls surrounding their computers, allowing nothing in or out.

It's a big question, but personally I would not want someone snooping on my surfing habits, it's no one's business other than mine, unless i give explicit permission to do so, which I never would.

This is the real fear of having Huawei (or just about anyone else) produce our internet hardware.
