No backdoor, no backdoor... you're a backdoor! Huawei won't spy for China or anyone else, exec tells MPs

HmmmYes

Lets get a couple of things straight.

John Suffolk is just a nobody. His background is a an IT body in a failed small building society.

He has about much clue about telecoms as my Gran does.

His next statements, made on the record, are total dumb crap:

“We’re quite clear, and it’s quite proven, we’re an independent company,” Suffolk answered. "No one can put us under pressure – we’ve made it very clear, regardless of who the country would be, if we were put under any pressure by any country that we felt was wrong, we would prefer to close the business."

One, Huawie is pretty much well know to be a Red Army controlled organisation. It is not independent of the CCP/Chinese state.

Theers been a couple of goes at looking at owenrship/control:

Two, noone can put pressure on us.

The guy is a moron.

Hauwie have already admitted this is not the case:

FInally does Mr Suffolk have much in the way of a grasp of Mandarin? Bet he doesnt.

Why would Huawei pick a neverwas from a small building society to front its telecom business? Were there no other suitable candiates??
