The Finite State report was written in June 2019. Yet the report uses Huawei router firmwares dated 2016 and 2017.
Yup, it's an "unpatched" exploit. LOL.
You keep posting click bait links thinking it will fool people. Not sure what your real aim is.
Do you always post stuff without reading it?
Well the whole point is to push the anti-China/anti-Huawei narrative at the end of the day
so clickbait articles are all the rage.
Had all this been a real major concern the entire world would have banned them, but in the end it’s all about a trade deal.
Nokia are distancing themselves from their CTO’s statements over the Finite State Report
Also it seems not all suppliers are treated equally in these checks which is really telling:
He conceded that Nokia's equipment was not subject to the same checks in the UK as Huawei, but said it did face scrutiny around the world.

It’s becoming more evident what this is all about and how unfairly Huawei are being targeted over other suppliers to, its interesting that the clickbait articles never seem to draw full comparisons to other suppliers, mainly due to the fact that they don’t seem to thoroughly check their gear to:
No-one external has scrutinized the code from the other companies. We probably feel quite comfortable with Ericsson and Nokia. No-one feels threatened by the Swedes and Finns, they are unlikely to want to spy on British citizens. But we know from whistleblower Edward Snowden that the NSA does like to snoop on friendly countries. I’ve read quite a bit of the mobile information from the Snowden leaks and some of it is wrong in the way mobile networks work, failing to understand the difference between voice, signaling and text messaging transport, so I am a little cautious, but Snowden does claim that the NSA re-routes Cisco export kit and installs backdoors.
To throw out Chinese kit we have no reason to suspect and switch it to Cisco kit which we do have grounds to worry about is foolhardy. Indeed my former boss Lord Sugar recently tweeted as much.
There might even be grounds to worry that the NSA isn’t just looking for the U.K. to drop Chinese kit so that we buy Cisco, but looking to make sure that there is something with American back doors in place.

It’s all rather messy and will continue to be until a favourable deal is done and everything can return to normal making all of this pointless.
We’ll just have to ignore the clickbait articles until there is full and thorough comparison and equal checks on all equipment, but I doubt that will ever happen as it goes against the narrative people want to set anyway.
so clickbait articles are all the rage.
