The British sent spies to undercover Huawei caused an uproar, while the United States once invaded Huawei's servers

According to the news of CCTV on January 15, a British corporate executive previously disclosed that the United Kingdom had installed spies inside Huawei and checked Huawei again. At the same time, an old incident from a few years ago also turned over, that is, in 2019, Huawei sued the United States for hacking into servers and stealing emails.

Let's take a look at the British spy thing. According to a British corporate executive who previously disclosed that the British side sent intelligence personnel to "infiltrate" Huawei, checking Huawei up and down, but in the end, they confirmed that Huawei was not a threat to the Uk.

Looking at the same espionage practices of the United States, in March 2019, Huawei revealed to the outside world at a press conference at its headquarters in Shenzhen that the United States was suspected of attacking Huawei's servers and stealing email and source code. At that time, Huawei held a foreign media press conference, and CNBC, The Associated Press, Reuters, Bloomberg, BBC and other media were invited to participate. Guo Ping, huawei's rotating chairman at the time, announced that Huawei had filed a lawsuit in U.S. federal court alleging that Section 889 of the U.S. National Defense Authorization Act of 2019 violated the U.S. Constitution.

Huawei is not defenseless against the use of espionage by the United States, the United Kingdom and others to steal Huawei's secrets. Japan's Keizai Shimbun reported that a number of sources told the Nikkei Asian Review that Huawei is worried that the company's insiders may cooperate with US intelligence agencies to leak secret data, so it is restructuring the personnel of executives and researchers with Ties to the United States.

Due to the abnormal means of the United States and the United Kingdom in Western countries, Huawei is also worried that there are American "spy" employees within the company. After the U.S. sanctions on Huawei, several Huawei executives with senior research and development positions, including Asian-Americans, have left Huawei or been transferred.
