> so he’d be wise to curb his nationalistic “no-one-tells-China-what-to-do” bluster<p>This comment highlights both ignorance of Chinese history and continuing American arrogance.<p>China has been painfully dictated what to do during the last 200 years. This has had a profound effect on the country and has led to the collapse of imperial rule and the drive to 'rejuvenate' the country (to use the official term in China).<p>This is also arrogant because it suggests that China should be told what to do coming from THE country (the USA) that really is the archetype of "no-one tells us what to do".<p>I would quip that one of the US's issues with China is that China is not told what to do and is too big to be easily coerced. A bit of a rude awakening for the US...<p>> Huawei then uses ... its rising global market dominance to set the next generation of global 5G telecom standards around its own technologies, not those of Qualcomm or Sweden’s Ericsson.<p>Which is exactly what Qualcomm did for 3G. Don't hate the player, hate the game.
This article makes a good point about "cheating". I personally don't like that word here, but by blocking other companies like Amazon, Google, FB, etc from entering in China, then copying those companies and selling the products to the rest of the world, this presents a problem for trade fairness.
