Huawei has now lost most of its RAM, flash, processor suppliers after US blacklist [u]
Umm, neither of those address the fact that in 2013, the DoD expressed concern for their products - several years prior to these articles. Just because nothing was found in these servers, doesn't mean that things don't happen in their network gear, which was the point at the time.lmac said:Original Bloomberg article:

It is past time for Bloomberg to retract or unequivocally prove the iCloud spy chip story
You mean like every single other news organization in America now? Including CNN, FoxNews, ABC, CBS, and NBC? All any of them care about is clicks and views. None of them care one whit about fair and accurate reporting anymore. It is quite a shame.All this time on from its original earthshaking claim, Bloomberg is staying quiet and hoping we'll forget about it. That doesn't sound like a news organization with a fantastic story and it doesn't sound like a responsible news organization either. It's making Bloomberg sound much more like a news organization whose desire for attention overrode its journalism.

Qualcomm's new X55 5G modem is ridiculously fast - but Apple probably won't use it
Umm, Apple has NEVER been a technology leader with network access speeds. Tons of phones had 3g available when the original iPhone only had 2g. Apple was late with 4g in their phones as well. Funny how they still managed to sell a few hundred million of them. Anyone who thinks that iPhone sales will "grind to a halt" if they don't release a 5g phone this year is simply smoking crack.Alchemy said:Upgrading to 5G is critical for iPhone sales this year! We all know that it will take time for the available networks to catch-up, but who in their right mind would pay over $1,000 for a phone that will be “obsolete” in a few years. It is all about perceived value. I was all set to upgrade my two old iPhone 6 with new XR’s, but held off waiting for the 5G. Some of the new bells and whistle features are nice, but not enough to convince me to upgrade. You can explain all you want about how practical 5G will be, but Apple gets a premium because they are perceived as the technology leader. iPhone sales will grind to a halt if they try to sell a phone that is considered technically inferior to others.

Sprint sues AT&T over adding bogus '5G E' icon to iPhones & other devices
I don't know what customer likes to be lied to. I don't love it at all. Sprint may not be able to win this, but maybe if customers started a class action lawsuit, it might change."We understand why our competitors don't like what we are doing, but our customers love it.
