Are you sure about that? US hardware is spying on the rest of the world for decades. Cisco is in no way better then huawei.

Can you not see the crazy smiley? Clearly indicating the statement is crazy. It was sarcasm, but OK I'll add the /S.

Also the part that USA did it for decades before China should clearly indicate the part above was sarcasm???

Reading comprehension is a skill. It seems like some people just glance at the words and make up what they expect to see. I have no idea how your comment could have been interpreted the way they did without a total disregard for the substance. Maybe they were reading it through an auto translation? Still, seems like the emoji is pretty obvious.

I hope Intel survives

That might be how you are supposed to read that response

OK that could have been stated more clearly, but why should I be against Intel, because USA has used Cisco for spying?

That's exactly the kind of stupid accusations without evidence I'm tired of USA making against China. Obviously the same standard goes the other way too.

And if Intel goes away, USA can still do it through AMD. 😋
