    They’re definitely grabbing analytics and statistics. But so is AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, Apple, Amazon, Samsung, Google, Microsoft.

    If the Chinese government asked any of those other companies to give them all the data they have on you in particular, They probably tell them to get bent.

    But if the US government told them to do it, they would comply and then have a gag order slapped against them to keep them from telling you it happened.

    Huawei is beholden to the Chinese government. So it works kind of in the opposite way.

      More likely they’ll send an invoice. They’re already selling your data to them. (And everyone else.)
