i don't think any carriers are selling huawei or zte phones - they never hit the shelves.
AT&T sells rebranded huawei cable boxes, though. shits pervasive.
to me, it was so quick and deliberate, it had to be:
she was told to shut it down
she found something in tony's office
the typical 'oh, she just wanted to rebrand' made no sense at the time. they shut down payroll immediately.
Rick Ross who was sued by NXIVM?

he stepped down so they couldn't use his personal assets to fill the gaps. kim didn't expect this shortfall, or she wouldn't have announced that she was taking over.
it's a nice story, but there's more.
maybe the lock was made/built after the QMAP 1/2 was made and the file, filename, metadata, something about that post itself is literally what he used to encrypt.
he liked what he saw in anons resourcefulness, and locked it in a second locker just for anons with a key, giving them more than they knew they had.
personal theory, nothing more.
in article, it says the bank wouldn't play ball.
they went from 30 million to 20 million. that's bad, but it's not that bad. if kim can start a new company, there had to be capital somewhere.
someone told her to shut it down, and they couldn't say why, so the bank told her. give us tony, or shut it down.
metaphorically.
why did the bank not play ball? did they think that kim & co. couldn't rebuild or carry on?
clearly not - they let her start up firm #2.
tony walked away from the deal, clearly still well heeled. someone wanted him out of the influence game, out of politics. perhaps he still had influence as a shareholder, or through some other contractual clause, even if he wasn't an employee or financially obligated.
