Huawei's 'entirely Chinese' desktop system does not use components made outside of China, yet they still rely on semiconductor supply chain that includes tools and materials from America, the Netherlands, and Japan.
If they have fully open source hardware and software/firmware, I actually do not object to it, in fact I’d prefer that regardless of what country made it.
But for context, I was originally born in China, and later immigrated to the us, so I have a higher skepticism of my former country than most westerners have, and its not because I was trying to be an American nationalist or anything like that.
But to be honest, at this point I’m not even that worried about privacy, its kinda near dead even in western democracies and most people dont seem to care, lowkey given up on trying to advocate for it. My biggest fear is actually censorship, and I’m not saying that the west wont attempt to push for more censorship too, but China has a bad rap for censorship, I’m leaning slight for anything thats not China (or russia or their allies). Like anyone really. Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Brazil, Mexico, and hopefully a big bloc like EUROPE.
I’m hoping for European tech honestly. Europe pls start investing more in tech and lead the democratic world! 🙏
