Before the birth of Huawei's HarmonyOS system, the global mobile phone market was mainly divided into two camps, namely the Apple camp, which was dominated by the iOS operating system, and the Android camp. Google Android is an open-source system, and the systems used by many mobile phone manufacturers are almost all based on Google's underlying code. iOS, on the other hand, is a closed-loop operating system, so Apple has been touting iPhones as "high security" and "high privacy".
Previously, there was a rumor that FIB had asked Apple to remotely open the iPhone fingerprint unlock to assist them, but Apple refused. This incident has caused quite a stir around the world, and it has also greatly improved the reputation of Apple's iPhone. But what is the truth?
On April 24, the South Korean media Herald officially announced that for Apple's iPhone, the South Korean military is considering a complete ban on the use of all military buildings to prevent some key information from being leaked. In contrast, Samsung phones powered by Google's Android system have no constraints.
As soon as this news came out, it instantly caused widespread discussion in the industry, and the topic of whether Apple's mobile phone is safe has once again been pushed to the forefront of public opinion. Many experts have said that the Korean media's statement is tantamount to completely tearing Apple's "fig leaf".
In fact, as early as 2013, Snowden, who served as a technical analyst at the US Federal Intelligence Agency, exposed the security problems of Apple's iPhone, which is known as the "Prism Gate" incident.
According to Snowden, the US Security Agency and the FBI have started a secret surveillance program since 2007, codenamed "Prism", and they have used the technology of nine Internet giants, including Google, Microsoft, and Apple, to carry out indiscriminate surveillance on some users, including those in the United States.
It's just that Apple and other companies have not admitted Snowden's "accusations", and they are strongly opposed. But judging from the current situation, Snowden does not seem to be lying, after all, South Korea and the United States are very close, and if they hadn't discovered anything, they wouldn't have banned Apple's iPhone so decisively. In fact, not only South Korea, since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Russia has already completely banned iPhones in some important facilities.
Of course, if Apple can prove its innocence, there may be room for maneuver. You must know that when the United States and the West questioned the insecurity of Huawei's 5G, Huawei not only directly set up a security lab in the United States to let them monitor the data at any time, but also disclosed the source code to relevant US agencies. But as a result, even if Huawei confirmed that there were no security problems, Lao Mei still ignored the truth and forcibly smeared it.
Now that feng shui is taking turns, in the face of doubts, does Apple dare to be as open and honest as Huawei? If it can't do it, no matter how much it can be justified, it will be futile. In the face of such a situation, Biden estimates that his heart is broken, and many American technology companies are likely to be labeled as "unreliable".
Huawei's efforts to build a standalone operating system have proven to be a smart move, which not only fundamentally eliminates supply chain instability, but also avoids potential security risks. Therefore, for Huawei's upcoming Galaxy version of the "pureblooded" Hongmeng system, we should give encouragement and support, and those voices who shout that "Huawei is complacent and anti-globalization to build Hongmeng", it's time to shut up!
It is undeniable that globalization is the trend of the times, but in the context of the large-scale suppression of hard-core Chinese enterprises by the United States and the West, if Chinese technology companies want to win respect and fairness in the international market, they must "have food in their hands", instead of handing over their fate to their opponents and blindly following the so-called "globalization" dominated by the United States and the West.
As the People's Daily said, the core technology can not be bought, exchanged, can not be bought, we must give up any illusions, there is no shortcut to the rise of China's science and technology, only adhere to independent research and development, standing on the commanding heights of technology, in order not to be afraid of any opponent. What do you think about this?
