This is what it looked like to me from the begging, but I didn't want to be that guy. TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan plans to ban government purchases of equipment from China’s Huawei Technologies Co Ltd and ZTE Corp to beef up its defenses against intelligence leaks and cyber attacks, sources told Reuters. Chinese tech companies are under intense scrutiny from Washington and some prominent allies over ties to the Chinese government, driven by concerns they could be used by Beijing for spying.

I'd be interested in reading anything you've found that would validate this. Wikipedia doesn't seem to have anything juicy to offer.

There is this article where they claim Huawei and Supermicro (secretly) implant chips and or other stuff in their products to spy on foreign governments and armies.

Bloomberg claimed that "chips smaller than a grain of rice" were being secretly placed on Super Micro motherboards by the manufacturing plant in China without the knowledge of Super Micro. Super Micro claimed the contrary, as did the companies and Governments that Bloomberg claimed were affected.

Bloomberg implied that Super Micro was negligent in their QC process. Bloomberg ran the article without actually verifying the information (which is proven by the fact that every company and Gov't they claim was affected, denied the allegations) and refused to accept that the information was given strictly to damage Super Micro's reputation and stock value. The fact that Bloomberg ran the article without verification of the information means that they can't be trusted.

US Government found a willing mouthpiece and exploited it thoroughly.

If you think Bloomberg (88% owned by gun grabber Michael Bloomberg) would do anything to help the Trump administration in any way, willingly or not, you've got to be out of your mind. This "source" would have been outed the second they thought they might have got the story wrong if that were the case.

#fakenews strikes again. Does supermicro get to sue Bloomberg for loss of sales and reputation damage ?
Bloomberg is on the edge of stock boosting/knocking with some very opinionated tech authors that should not be legal but I am the type that feel there should be no prescription drug ads on tv also

Bloombergs a grub in it for easy money.
