Title: Do Huawei Phones pose a risk to BTC User's Privacy & Security? Post by: BTCgrinders.com on January 18, 2019, 10:46:20 AM https://www.wired.com/story/huaweis-many-troubles-bans-alleged-spies-backdoors/
Huawei has had a lot of bad publicity in the press for its security and privacy issues, ties to Chinese government, etc. The article is one of the better ones that sums up some of those issues. It's not their phones that's been scrutinized, but their company privacy and operations. In fact their products have had some of the best ratings because of quality and price. What do you guys think? A simple google of 'Huawei bans' can provide more info. Title: Re: Do Huawei Phones pose a risk to BTC User's Privacy & Security? Post by: stoat on January 18, 2019, 11:29:11 AM Huawei phones are obviously not secure. the company is not subject to rule of law (there is no real rule of law in China outside of party decree). At least the other major western brands are spying on you at least putatively “lawfully”. And are subject to rule of law by democratic governments

Post by: WebdeveIoper on January 19, 2019, 05:16:36 PM I don't believe any phone is a secure place to store crypto. I'd rather keep it on my hardware wallet.

Post by: AuroraHF on January 21, 2019, 05:11:11 AM If you're communicating on Huawei phones, would use a confidential communication app as opposed to the default SMS app due to privacy concerns. Telegram, Sylo, Signal, WhatsApp(?) are good options.
