The “Five Eyes” — Great Britain, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, and the US — have over the past year waged a concerted campaign to block the Chinese tech giant from dominating next-generation wireless networks around the world. Not only have they largely kept Huawei out of their own countries, but they have also convinced other countries like Japan, India, and Germany to go along, too.
Whoever controls the 5G networks will control the world — or at least large parts of it.
