A new in-depth Report on China's Huawei exposes it as a powerful tool of the Chinese Communist Party.
"Huawei plays a key role in the Chinese Communist Party's programs of mass surveillance, human rights abuse, and technological dominance." — The Epoch Times Editor-in-Chief Jasper Fakkert
- The world's biggest telecom company, Huawei—which works hand-in-glove with the Chinese Communist Party—is positioning itself to dominate 5G technology, potentially gaining access to a large portion of data transfers worldwide.
- The Chinese Communist Party has detained Canadian citizens likely in retaliation for the recent arrest of Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou by Canadian authorities.
- Huawei was involved in creating China's "Golden Shield" internet censorship infrastructure; the incipient "social credit system" to track and rate citizens based on behavior; and video monitoring project "Heaven Net" (tian wan). Many of Huawei's clients are Chinese state-security related.
