2/ As a candidate for federal office, I have been specifically instructed not to use a Huawei phone, or let people in my team use one.

I’m inclined to believe our intelligence agencies know something the public does not. But without proof, it’s hard to feel good about this move.

Huawei had a plan to develop its own OS (and doesn’t use Google services in China, its biggest smartphone market),

But this is Huge If True: effectively shuts it out of mobile business beyond China. Without Google Play Store and Google apps, you’re dead. (See: Nokia X project.) https://t.co/s5gFNZswDN

This is huge news. Huawei is the 3rd largest smartphone maker in the world, and that business will be devastated without access to Android.

Our government has voiced strong concerns that Huawei hardware is facilitating spying by the Chinese government, but given scant evidence. https://t.co/ErxBCKR6Jm

This will have a huge impact on #Huawei in Europe the star market outside of China. It will be interesting to see if there are workarounds but as much as Huawei is key to Android gov’t and enterprise market are key to Google.
