This point is brought up a lot and my simple counter to it is: I don't fucking care. If I want to use Instagram to just look at my friend's photos of a bag of rusty nails Instagram shouldn't care either. No one cared about how they'd find new content before all these social media companies began introducing these intrusive algorithms to keep us on their platforms for hours and hours. It's a completely made up problem that doesn't need to exist at all.

And Latin America.

Latin America too. They have a Huawei store in Mexico City that looks exactly like an Apple Store. It's crazy to walk in their and play around with their phones.

EU nations buy a lot of Huawei telecom equipment (Germany is the largest client I believe)

Is this not common? I got all of mine out in one day and was back to normal 2 days later.

Do they also not work in the heat?

There are hospitals in the US and Europe that still run on Windows 98 and some that use 3.1 because of specific programs that were never updated.
