Ah yes let's try to stifle Chinese innovation by ... checks notes ... expanding our surveillance state. Usually we are the ones calling China a surveillance state, but it's fine(it's not) once we do it.

Yeah. All the FUD about Huawei really solidified in my mind how stupid the average internet user is these days.

It's like, everything they were bitching about has already been confirmed to be happening with US companies thanks to PRISM and the Snowden leaks.
