Am I the only or who thinks...

...that this was just the IEEE taking the piss?

There is an edict published saying that any organisation with an office in the USA is part of the USA Empire and must not touch Huawei with a barge pole under any circumstances.

Committee convenes somewhere suitably comfortable and libation friendly.

"What are these idiots on about? This is far too broad brush.

Not sell anything to Huawei? Anything????????

FFS we could become a terrist organisation by someone in Germany selling a coffee mug to a Huawei employee!!!

OK. Lets make a quick list of all the ways any IEEE member anywhere in the world might interact with Huawei including employees anywhere in the world.

Publish and promote it to show that we intend to comply completely with every aspect of this ruling.

Don't forget the coffee mugs!"

The rest is history.
