That is not atypical - countries can and should protect their interests and the interests of their citizens (see GDPR).

Huawei wanted to play both sides, and by doing so, opened themselves up to these charges. They were under no obligation to use the US financial infrastructure, and only through its use did they become covered by its laws.

So your definition of unharmed is somewhere between unharmed, and the beating by the Chicago transport cop of a physician on a plane.

We're talking apples and oranges, HarryHirsh, and I don't think you're willing to view this discussion in good faith. Good day.

This is not unharmed. You clearly knew about the case yet you deliberately obfuscated the facts until you were called out on it. Instead of backpedaling own up to why you would try to distort the facts. This is not to say the fellow with the bow and arrow isn't a complete imbecile, and didn't deserve what was coming. On that I have no view.

Are you suggesting this founder should have been more public about his past? Based on what is being reported he seems to have pulled himself up by his bootstraps and made something of himself under terrible circumstances. He has clearly done good and that is what people will judge. His bad decision doesn't define him, yet you would have him tell everyone so that he reaches your bar of being "open and remorseful."
