Here's what was interesting for me, what their supply chain consists of now:

- Display from BoE in China

- Cameras from Sony in Japan

- RAM from SK Hynix in South Korea

- NFC chip from NXP in the Netherlands

- Battery from Huizhou Desay Battery Co. in China

- Flash memory from Korea (Samsung) or Japan (Toshiba)

---

..and I was curious about the software side, still on Android with:

- Attempt at Huawei's own app ecosystem

- No Play Store, Gmail, Google Maps, YouTube, or any other Google service

- No Facebook (+ WhatsApp and Instagram), Netflix, Amazon, Twitter, Uber, Lyft, and "a million others"

This should be a wake up call to all nations. Your livelihood soon will depend 100% on a fascist country, it will brainwash your kids with pro-CCP ads, your data will be held hostage to a Beijing backed data centers, your politicians will be sold off to CCP agenda, you won’t have a way to speak up, your locally made tools will be worse off, and the expertise to make such tools will die off.

I don’t have a good feeling for the future. Stop buying Chinese-made goods. Boycott now.
