Hi all,
it would be a big chance for huawei to show the US monopoly that they can do without them.
Have a RiscV CPU and an open source GPU (is there anything better than vga with bit blit as open source verilog?)
Also having a fully open source lineage os would be an asset. When they throw money on open source projects I would consider buying from them as one gets a spyware free phone.
I doubt that huawei builds in backdoors as cisco does.
I am applying for a 2nd grant to create formal mathematic correctness proofs of the hardware. This will have the fascinating side effect that independent verification of the design's total lack of spyware backdoors can be mathematically proven.
The nsa is based in the usa and china does not have anything in knowing my date with the dentist. While google and the nsa is nosy about such data.
So I would trust huawei more than cisco and google.
So having a more open source huawei company and a huawei lineage os phone with risc V would be a strong asset for the open source movement.
Trump will retrospectively be recognised as the greatest president of all time. By virtue of the population of the US going "holy fuck that was scary, we are never going to vote in such a bigoted fascist dickhead into power ever again".
So he is doing everyone a favour...
