Huawei has no back door, but Cisco has 10

Germany responds to Trump: Huawei has no back door, but Cisco has 10

 

Today, the Daily Mirror in Berlin, Germany, published an important article titled "Europeans should not blindly follow Trump". At a special moment, they criticized the Trump administration for its misconduct.

 

This article reveals a very important fact that no backdoors were found in Huawei's products, and 10 vulnerabilities were discovered on Cisco products in the United States.

 

When the news came out, the fact that many people doubted was true. Trump is suppressing Huawei not only to prevent Huawei from growing, but more importantly, to better use American equipment to monitor other countries.

 

Even Germany’s Chancellor Merkel’s phone was intercepted by the United States, and Germany was deeply hurt. Since Germany learned that Prime Minister Merkel’s phone was intercepted by the United States, Germany’s trust in the United States has fallen sharply.

 

Since the explosion of the Prism Door scandal, the scandal of the United States to monitor the world has been known around the world, but the United States has still not improved. When entering the 5G era, Trump found that American companies could not provide true 5G products.

 

China's Huawei is the most powerful product supplier and service provider in the 5G era. If the world uses Huawei products, then the United States cannot monitor the people of other countries.

 

This article from Germany is very interesting. There are several points in the following. It is worth reading and thinking.

 

1. Europe did not blindly follow Trump.

 

The Trump administration blocked Chinese companies such as Huawei and ZTE from outside the United States, but the European countries did not follow blindly, but were very rational.

 

European political circles in Germany, France, and the United Kingdom have followed good advice and provided a level playing field, but they are relatively cautious.

 

2, Huawei's products have no back door, but the US Cisco products have found 10 vulnerabilities.

 

The British government, the German Information Security Agency, and the European Commission have been investigating Huawei's products for several years, but they have not found backdoors in Huawei's equipment. So far, no security problems have been discovered.

 

During the investigation of Cisco products in the United States, security vulnerabilities were frequently discovered. From 2013 to the present, 10 vulnerabilities have been discovered.

 

Instead of worrying about Huawei's product security, it is better to speak out about Cisco products in the United States and ask Cisco products to improve their security.
 

3. Europe should establish its own reliable safety standards and treat them equally.

 

Countries in Europe should establish their own reliable safety standards for every IT product, and Germany does do so, as does France.

 

All kinds of IT products are tested according to their own national security standards. They are the same security standards, whether they are Huawei products or American products.

 

German government official Hohmann also stressed that no matter which company, the same security rules apply, especially in the 5G technical standards, it should be so, can carry out a wide range of professional, expert discussions, but should not become a political tool of abuse.

 

It can be seen from this that Germany is very rational, has no blind obedience, but rationally proposes solutions and treats them equally. This is tantamount to good news for Huawei.

 

Moreover, the German government has also revealed the fact that there are a large number of security vulnerabilities in Cisco's communications products, and these vulnerabilities are likely to be intentional.

 

This also shows that the Trump administration has a ulterior motive for the blockade of Huawei. It is clear that it is a secret to prevent the world from using Huawei products so that the United States can continue to monitor the world.

The Daily Mirror is a British Tabloid paper it's not even German 

LEFT-CENTER BIAS Factual Reporting: MIXED

This post is biased because fact is it don't matter if Trump was in there are not . Democrats and Republicans rarely agree on anything, but the parties united to condemn one common enemy: China.

https://mashable.com/article/china-huawei-5g-bipartisanship/

 

Fact is everything have vulnerabilities people claim Intel vulnerabilities were  intentional too  but just saying they are is a about as hypocritical as  the USA  saying Huawei has them without showing us proof but since there the goverment they have it  like that  , mere suspension is  good enough reason  for them to ban it. Germany  ban Office 365  in schools   because  they afraid  it  contains a USA back door  ( mere suspension )  Nation States  are going to do what they going to do its nothing  the conman man can do even voting people out or impeaching dont  matter when a issue has bipartisan support .

 

The Op is from May 23, 2019 .BTW  Germany  is split  about Huawei  right now  so they delayed decision on 5g rollout . It will be later own  when  they decide .

What important is : will the government, because of  your speech, lock you up and not allow you to contact the outside world even your family members for more than a year like some countries, especially those  regard human rights are evil.

Yes people are more worried  getting there  5G  than they are human rights ,  They sit behind there phone  worried  about technology while there rights are being eroded away. In the end it don't matter  someone will provide  it,  the USA is not  going to provide 5G  to the EU no way it will ether be EU providers  or China .  But Big Telco  in  the EU want to get away  with it as cheap as possible . Instead of providing jobs for there own people they want to give it to China . The way they headed they going be like China in 10 years if things don't  change  with no human rights there  just sheep worried about there 5g . They may lose all there jobs and rights but at lest they will have cheap 5G .

 

I'm firm believer in being self reliant , but going  from being reliant on USA Tech to the China Tech is not doing that.  In 10 years  when  they become like the USA were everything is made in China except  for some software and ne they  need to start a trade war to get there country back  they may  understand why they need to be self reliant I guess but they still never figured it out  every since there been a EU.

I value my right to buy the best equipment from which ever company makes it in which ever country it chooses free from political interference, and tariffs.  Tariffs will not create better products, free trade will.  Free trade increases competition, and companies will choose to make their products cheaply so they can profit.  When the consumer pays the tariffs imposed on other countries, his spending money will not go as far, and eventually the economy suffers.  This is a basic rule of economics.  The more you must spend on luxuries the less luxuries you will buy, and if the price of necessities goes up the less luxuries you will buy, and then less people will be employed because people stop vacationing, eating at restaurants, etc.  We are already reliant on Chinese tech.  Our motherboards are made in China, our memory for Video, and motherboards are made in Taiwan, and we post to this forum via Realtek Network adapters which are made in Taiwan.  Everything is already Chinese, and the last U.S. television company was put out of business by Trump's Chinese tariffs, so go figure.
