The United Kingdom launched its first 5G network on May 30. Britain’s public broadcaster BBC, did two live TV broadcasts using Huawei’s equipment that day. The first one was delayed by 15 minutes, while the second one was cut short after the image stopped displaying due to poor signals.
Meanwhile, more than 100 computer experts are currently doing security tests on 5G equipment from Nokia, Ericsson, Huawei, and other telecom firms operating in the UK. The Sunday Telegraph quoted government and industry sources on June 1 saying that Chinese state hackers were purposely attacking the systems of Huawei rivals, so that the Chinese regime could report the “vulnerabilities” to the 5G testers and rig the competition in Huawei’s favor.
