Classic misdirection tactic.

"what has company X done?"

"company Y did this bad thing"

"all companies in Z do bad thing"



Huh?

GGP: Has anyone published the evidence of Huawei being an "arm of the PRC surveillance state"?

GP: My father used to work for molex, one of his biggest complaints were fixing the molds after they were sent to Chinese factories. They would try to deconstruct them and couldn’t put them back together

Taking apart competitors' products is standard & ethically accepted practice virtually everywhere, there are lots of published anecdotes. Eg the one in Soul of a New Machine, where the team at Data General analyze a VAX. And there's no relevance to the surveillance state.
