    As long as they aren't buying any more of the chinky shit, who cares?

    Huawei reassures UK over impact of US sanctions


    "United States sanctions will not have an immediate impact on Huawei's operations in the United Kingdom, a top executive from the Chinese telecommunications company has said. Huawei's vice-president, Victor Zhang, said any disruption to the company's supply chain brought on by US export restrictions will take months to materialize. He said Huawei can meet the near-term demands of British customers through existing stockpiles.

    Zhang also urged the UK government not to make swift determinations about Huawei's future in Britain.

    Earlier this year Prime Minister, Boris Johnson ignored US calls for a full boycott of Huawei and said the company could continue to operate in the UK, but in a restricted capacity.


    But recent US sanctions on Huawei have prompted London to review that decision over fears the company will not be able to source some parts from US suppliers.


    "We urge a cautious and evidence-based approach to this critical long-term decision," Zhang said during a media call. "The fact is it is too early to assess the long-term impact, and too premature to make a considered judgement on our ability to deliver next generation connectivity across the UK."

    Johnson's earlier determination followed a long period of sustained pressure from Washington to ban Huawei from participating in 5G network infrastructure. The US said Huawei posed a cybersecurity threat, though it has provided no evidence to support the claims.

    Washington has also enforced a series of trade restrictions intended to weaken Huawei's position as a global leader in 5G technology, the latest of which was announced in May. The sanctions, which go into effect in September, stipulate that foreign manufacturers that use US hardware must obtain a license before supplying Huawei.


    The export controls effectively cut off Huawei's access to semiconductors made with US equipment.


    Johnson's government requested that the UK's National Cyber Security Centre conduct a review of the potential impact the sanctions would have on Huawei's operations in Britain. The review was delivered to the government this week and is believed to say that the security services raised concerns about the future reliability of Huawei as a lead supplier of 5G kit.


    Zhang reassured the UK that the company will be able to supply its UK clients into next year, and asked the government to refrain from a knee-jerk reaction. He said the impact of the US sanctions, as well as Huawei's response to changes in its supply chain, will take time to play out.

    "There's no issue for Huawei to continue to work with our customers like BT and Vodafone," Zhang said. "These restrictions actually haven't had an impact on Huawei's capability to supply to the UK's 5G and fiber solution at this moment. It is important to wait until all the facts are known. The restriction by the US administration will take months to fully understand."

    Zhang also warned that parting ways with Huawei could lead to a costly delay to the rollout of 5G in the UK, a country that relies heavily on equipment from the Chinese company. Around 35 percent of the kit used in the UK's 4G rollout came from Huawei, according to UK government estimates.

    A report commissioned by the trade association Mobile UK forecast that a full Huawei ban would delay 5G rollout by up to two years, at a cost of 6.8 billion pounds ($8.6 billion) to the UK economy.

    On Thursday, Zhang provided expert evidence to the UK Parliament's Science and Technology Committee, which is examining the 5G supply chain as part of an ongoing inquiry into UK telecommunications."

    It's OK though, Samsung are two years ahead of schedule on 6G, so we can just ditch the chinky shit and go for Korean.

    They are far more trustworthy and they don't spread diseases.

    Was it the UK government inviting a Chinese company to inform the UK Parliament's Science and Technology Committee, which is examining the 5G supply chain as part of an ongoing inquiry into UK telecommunications, with expert information?

    Samsung starts 6G network research at new center

    By Song Su-hyun

    Published : Jun 4, 2019 - 17:43 Updated : Jun 4, 2019 - 17:43

    "Samsung Electronics said Tuesday it has embarked on initial research on the sixth-generation telecommunications network by launching a new research center.

    Samsung recently formed the Advanced Communications Research Center under Samsung Research, the company’s main R&D organization, based in southern Seoul.

    The tech giant has expanded the existing telecommunications research team to the level of a center after the launch of fifth-generation technologies

    “The current team on telecommunications technology standards has been expanded to start leading research on the 6G network,” said a Samsung official.

    Along with the 6G network, Samsung Research is in charge of conducting R&D on artificial intelligence and robotics.

    No definitive UK decision yet, just a comment that Bojo "urges" the UK networks to ..... (Behind the FT paywall)

    Maybe 'arry can post the complete FT article here and inform us all of the FT's "opinion", as to what the UK Parliament's Science and Technology Committee has decided/may decide, at some point in 2020/1/2/3/4/5/6/7.

    If BoJo has not been pensioned off and a new UK PM takes a different view.

    I suppose a 2 - 7 year window to deliver is not enough eh.

    One hopes your next 7 year income stream delivers as predicted and equally sound, in terms of any "sudden events".

    The United States has pushed Johnson to reverse his January decision to grant Huawei a limited role in 5G, while London has been dismayed by a crackdown in Hong Kong and by the perception that China did not tell the whole truth over coronavirus.
    We convinced many countries — many countries — and I did this myself, for the most part — not to use Huawei because we think it’s an unsafe security risk. It’s a big security risk. I talked many countries out of using it. If they want to do business with us, they can’t use it.

    Just today, I believe that UK announced that they’re not going to be using it. And that was up in the air for a long time, but they’ve decided. And you look at Italy; you look at many other countries.

    That's not how it works and 5G will come, with or without the Chinese mfgrs.
    5G and 6G are global standards set by a committee of mfgrs, mobile service providers, and telecom authorities.
    5G is on schedule to be rolled out this year and 6G is scheduled for 2027.

    This is technology we are talking about.

    By the time 5G is deployed it will already be obsolete, and 7G will be in the works.

    (doublespeak: to convince = to twist arms)

    So, the 5G is now with us, also the oil supply.
    Now only, can we supply ourselves instead of the 20 million containers yearly?

    So, you don't believe a thing he says . . . along with most people including TDers, yet you have your little touch of the vapours when you want to believe something because it suits your narrative.

    What if I were to tell you that actually, this really has nothing to do with the fantasy that if you buy world leading Huawei equipment as part of your 5G network, the Chinee can spy on your every move?

    It appears that the EU have "concerns" regarding security by ameristani data companies/government "intelligence agencies" access/government blocking and usage.

    Pompeo 'deeply disappointed' in EU court decision to ditch trans-Atlantic data transfer deal


    "U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Friday the United States was “deeply disappointed” in a ruling on Thursday by Europe’s highest court that a trans-Atlantic data transfer deal is invalid because of concerns about U.S. surveillance.
    Pompeo said in a statement that the United States would review the consequences and implications of the decision by the Court of Justice of the European Union that could disrupt thousands of companies that rely on the agreement.

    “We are deeply disappointed that the Court of Justice of the European Union ... has invalidated the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield framework,” Pompeo said.

    “The United States will continue to work closely with the EU to find a mechanism to enable the essential unimpeded commercial transfer of data from the EU to the United States,” he added.

    The ruling effectively ends the privileged access companies in the United States had to personal data from Europe and puts the country on a similar footing to other nations outside the bloc, meaning data transfers are likely to face closer scrutiny.

    The so-called Privacy Shield was set up in 2016 by Washington and Brussels to protect personal data when it is sent to the United States for commercial use after a previous agreement known as Safe Harbour was ruled invalid in 2015.

    More than 5,000 companies have signed up to it but the Privacy Shield was challenged in a long-running dispute between Facebook and Austrian privacy activist Max Schrems, who has campaigned about the risk of U.S. intelligence agencies accessing data on Europeans. "

    As most are aware of ameristani's "intelligence" agencies bugging of foreign government officials, it should come as no surprise.
