The
US finally filed charges against Huawei and its detained CFO Meng
Wanzhou. The accusations basically boil down to supposedly evading
anti-Iranian sanctions and stealing
technology from American competitors, zeroing in on some specific cases
in order to advance the larger infowar narrative that this Chinese
company is unofficially functioning as a strategic arm of the communist
state. The details of the charges themselves aren’t too important in
this context when compared to their larger impact because the most
important aspect to pay attention to is how the American government is
trying to take down its chief international technology competitor in
what can be described as the ongoing “tech arms race”. [ 421 more words ]
