while Huawei just stole the results of Nortel’s R&D and then had CCP subsidies for the production.
China requires that all companies entering their market share their technology with Chinese firms, any company planning to enter the Chinese market know that.
In other words, Nortel (and others companies who set shop in China) willingly shared their tech with China in exchange for being allowed to operate in the country, so saying China stole the technology is extremely dishonest.
Wow that’s still stealing, you redsonofabitch. Lemmy is tankie heaven… Dmn
Interesting story. I wonder what would have happened if Nortel produced the phones in Canada.
In that era, someone else in the telecoms business would have gone to China for production to compete with Nortel.
Results likely wouldn’t have been all that different.
You are so close to getting it
Can you explain? I’m not really good at catching the subtleties of language through text.
IMO the commenter is not at all close to getting it because the Canadian firm would have patented their innovation and produced it in a country that has the kind of IP laws they expect, so their innovation would have reaped a great reward instead of getting copied and put them out of business.
Em adespotom here is implying that the company had to go to China to complete with other Canadian companies in the same business and that China is somehow to blame for this.
But the thing is, if the conditions of the CANADIAN market force Canadian companies to go to China to be competitive, then it’s not really China’s fault now is it?!
Thanks now I see your point. It always surprises me when people are like “let me use your slave labour and lack of environmental regulations” and then they’re surprised China has no allegiance to Western IP laws, which are of zero benefit to them.
Nortel wasn’t killed by Huawei stealing their IP, which certainly did happen. They tanked themselves with some terrible accounting that hid the terrible situation they put themselves in. Nortel and Enron are the reason GAAP is the gold standard and legally required to be reported these days.
Hmm; I wish the mods told me why they removed my comment so I don’t do it again.

The company produces spyware garbage so…
Name a major tech company that doesn’t. 🙄
Apparently, its only okay to make spyware when its made by a US or European company
EDIT: Just want to point out that that’s not what OP said, it’s just a trend I often see around the Lemmy community
Thats not what i said.
The lesser of two evils
You wish you had their 5G gear though https://youtube.com/shorts/izXpJzqn93k
