Verizon Kills Plans to Sell Huawei Phones
Facing political pressure to scrap the deal, Verizon is dropping their plans to sell Huawei phones to their customers here in the United States. The plan is a blow to the Chinese manufacture who suffered a similar blow from AT&T earlier this month.
The news comes from sources at Bloomberg who state the main thrust behind the decision was political pressure due to concerns about the company potentially spying for the Chinese government, something Huawei has long denied and there being no evidence from the other countries where their devices are sold as this being an issue.
