Who's the guy on the right? (Our right.)

They don't cite any sources because they are not a journalistic outlet

Very weird how you are "bantering" about this like it's a sports game

The problem with DU is the contamination of the environment with heavy metal.

Russiagate has always been copium for Western liberals who cannot accept the fact that reactionary tendencies are weaved into the fabric of their culture and institutions so they tell themselves bullshit like how their redneck racist uncle only voted for Trump and is anti-abortion because Putin seductively whispered some arcane incantation in his ear. In truth Russia's propaganda is not very effectual

• In 2017 before RT was shut down in the UK, it accounted for 0.04 percent of the UK’s total TV audience.[1]
• A New York University study published earlier this year found that the supposed Russian Twitter influence campaign ahead of the 2016 election which dominated headlines for years had had “no measurable impact in changing minds or influencing voter behavior”.[2]
• An earlier study found that suspected Russian accounts showing up in Facebook’s news feed during that time amounted to “approximately 1 out of 23,000 pieces of content.”[3]
• A study by Adelaide University found that despite headline after headline warning us about a massive wave of Russian bots manipulating online discourse after the invasion of Ukraine began last year, the overwhelming majority of fake accounts they examined (more than 90 percent) were pro-Ukraine accounts.[4]

The bigger point is that the USA is pretty much the technological leader of the world and a frontrunner in information warfare. All the major social media companies have to have close ties with the US state department to be able to function at the scale at which they do. So why is it that Russo-Chinese bots and shills are running circles around Americans?

Beginning to think that Americans on social media are feeble minded babies with no agency of their own swayed in whichever direction foreign shills and bots want to take them in.

OP did not write that article for The Economist

He's cultivating mass

Keeping only Australia and USA in mind, it would be worth comparing the absolute wage per capita. It could show that USA as a nation is grotesquely wealthy because of which workers get a smaller relative share of the pie.

The report says this:

First and foremost, as discussed above, employees own the majority of the Huawei’s shares issued, and Huawei has been an “employee-owned company” at least since 2011 according to the available Annual reports show. Second, the highest decision-making body in corporate governance is the Commission, comprised of representatives directly elected by employee shareholders one vote one share. Shareholders' representatives exercise voting rights on important management matters such as the election of directors and auditors, on behalf of employee shareholders. Third, BOD is the highest body in management strategy, business operations and customer satisfaction underneath the Commission. All directors and auditors are elected from employees. Currently, all of them are employee shareholders. Fourth, Ren Zhengfei has a right of veto.75 Ren Zhengfei himself responded to a reporter that “This comes with a time limit and when the new rules76 were passed this limit77 was extended. I do not exercise my right to veto unless there is a major problem78” (Bilibili Z Generation Paradise, 2019)79. In this regard, Jiangxi Sheng, the chief secretary of Huawei's BOD, told reporters at the Southern China Morning Post that “These rules were the Governance Charter” and went on to say that the Governance Charter strictly stipulates the important matters subject to the exercise of the right of veto, citing management personnel and capital increase as two such examples.

It's a representative system within the company. I think this is what you meant.

Smoking cigarettes causes chronic bronchitis. The title is a joke though.

I really don't have any way to disprove this. There have been two English language studies into Huawei's structure. The earlier one by Balding et al tries to claim that it is employee owned in name only but there is a more recent one by a Japanese university that contradicts this fact. Interestingly neither of the studies raise issues about significatly unequitable profit sharing so there's that. The founder of the company owns about 1% of the shares.

It's definitely likely that they collaborate with the government in some capacity because of how important Huawei is but that was only one part of why sanctions the enacted. IMO the bigger problem for the US was that Huawei was catching up to western corporations in crucial technologies like 5G so the sanctions were put in place in prevent them from competing. It's just run-of-the-mill protectionism.

Huawei is not a publicly traded company. It's a private company wholly owned by its employees.

In some capacity. But currently India alone cannot fulfill their requirement.

Britain renamed Bharat to India

This is not entirely correct because India as a consolidated nation state did not exist when Brits entered the scene. It was rather a patchwork of empires. This was also the case until right before independence when Congress had to do a mad dash to convince the various princely kingdoms become a part of India by either the use of bribes or force.

This name change is a ploy to appease their Hindu nationalist constitutents and imbue in them a sense of pride and dignity without providing any material benefits. It also alienates the non-Hindu Indians because that's just what BJP does. They have been changing Urdu names to Hindi ones (example Allahabad→Prayagraj) for this very reason. Honestly, I feel if people knew what BJP did (and is doing) in Uttar Pradesh (a province) with Babri Masjid and making it a site for Hindu religious tourism they would understand how venomous BJP's rhetoric and agenda are but it's a whole can of worms.

I like that they have detailed the app's architecture in the documentation. I have zero android app dev experience so can't say for sure but it should be useful for someone who is learning and looking for reference.

It's not like Ukraine has taken any great steps to condemn American sanctions on Cuba.
