This argument has strong extra-territorial qualities because they forced the "five eyes" compatriots in AU and NZ to drop Huawei as core technology in domestic and international fibre deployment.

But, there is this other quality. The in-senate presentation mainly focussed on the governance structures behind Huawei. The government is cross because ex PLA members are vested and its not a transparent company structure.

I think the FBI/CIA/NSA reports are deeply troubling for their lack of specificity, in a context of international trade I am not drawn to entirely believe them.

Remember, this is the nexus of people who alleged sound reasons to go to war in Iraq which turned out to be flawed. Sometimes rumour is conflated with fact.

I know people who work in Huawei. I do not believe they are people of bad intent.
