They are not wrong, but will they also ban Cisco in their "Sovereignty Push"?


No. In the 2019 EU 5G Risk Assessment and the 2020 5G Toolbox, EU regulators gave three reasons why no US vendors triggered the "high-risk supplier" designation: US vendors weren't building the 5G core in Europe; EU regulators concluded that US law does allow compelled cooperation but accompanied by independent courts, adversarial process, and statutory limits; and no European regulator found technical-assurance failures in US vendors comparable to Huawei's.

If you don't like what the EU Commission is doing, you can vote them out. (Just kidding, no you can't.)


Why should they?

The United States honors international IP law and doesn't cheat its way into threatening domestic production of other countries like China does.


> The United States honors international IP law

May I introduce you to a somewhat recent concept people like to call AI.


Cisco complied with the NSA PRISM program (Snowden leaks) and were putting hardware backdoors in their hardware on request from the NSA, for hardware that was destined for overseas.

Sounds pretty untrustworthy to me.


So did the EU intelligence agencies and governments. You just route traffic through your neighbor so they spy for you and you do the same for them.


Mentioning Cisco the context of honoring IP is a bit ironic: http://pdp10.nocrew.org/docs/cisco.html


> doesn't cheat its way into threatening domestic production of other countries

Can you still say this with a straight face with everything that is coming from Washington?


> Why should they?

Because bashing all things American while ignoring the threat posed by China is part of Europe's cultural DNA.
