I read “Asian company” ...... nope. Yet GoC will do Huawei.

We allow companies to track our locations so they can sell us more stuff, but we don't want the government to track us to keep us safe.

Authorities in Canada & US are to politically correct to do this. The bottom of the barrel needs to be reached before the PC bureaucratic dickheads act.

Good!
