The US government delivered a crippling blow to Huawei last week, placing the Chinese conglomerate on an “Entity List” that meant Huawei would not be able to acquire any technology from US companies without government approval — and that includes access to critical software such as Google’s Android and Microsoft Windows operating systems. A report over the weekend said that Google is already adhering to the ban, having suspended ties with Huawei for the time being. Huawei has since explained what will happen to its Android phones going forward, just as multiple high-profile companies have also announced cutting ties with the company.
