HUAWEI and Five Eyes

Following recent discussions about the above subject - where there were, what I at least view, as some fairly hubristic statements made about the UK's 5 eyes relationships. I found this piece that offers some balance I think. It is from the BBC. See what you think.

Natural resource has always given nations a competitive edge, never understood how Data has.

It's time all this nonsense stopped....I mean....
Who wants to turn their lights and heating on and off from the next village, or watch their house being burgled while they sunbathe on a beach in Benidorm?

Gadgets have got a bit out of hand lately, I agree with Foxy.

I can see no personal advantage or even interest in 5G.

Re: HUAWEI and Five Eyes

Is HUAWEI 5G the only option for operating all this stuff in the UK? Half my street has the kind of tech you are talking about and we won't have a bar of HUAWEI. Or am I missing something?..Serious question so civil response please.
