Google is warning Huawei users not to sideload apps
So as you already know that Huawei is banned from using
Google services which means their latest smartphones such as the Huawei Mate30
Pro and even their upcoming flagship the Huawei P40 Pro won't have apps like
Gmail, YouTube, Google maps and most importantly the play store. Of course,
some Huawei users have found away to counter this ban which is to sideload these
apps from third-party websites. Now for the first time, Google has come forward
to address the Huawei ban and they are clearly warning users of Huawei phones
to not sideload these Google apps because they can't confirm whether or not the
app is real or has malware hidden inside. Here's what they said, Sideloaded
Google apps will not work reliably because we do not allow these services to run
on uncertified devices where security may be compromised. Sideloading Google’s
apps also carries a high risk of installing an app that has been altered or
tampered with in ways that can compromise user security.

You see Google puts
the certified devices through its “rigorous” security checks or preloads them
with Google Play Protect software, which can detect when hardware has been
compromised. In Huawei's case, they can't do that because of the ban and they
are saying there are significant chances that the security of the Huawei phone can
be compromised easily so basically they are saying to not sideload the apps
which also means do not buy their phones.

Trump is making sure Huawei Doesn’t make smartphones at all
It looks like Trump administration is doing everything they
can to destroy Huawei and their latest plan is to force TSMC which is the
world's biggest chipmaker who makes SoC's for Apple, Qualcomm and more from
supplying smartphone chips to Huawei. Now you might be like, wait, isn't TSMC a
Taiwanese company. Well, that's right but they use US-made manufacturing equipment.
So now, the US government has proposed a new rule where companies using
American tech must seek license to sell to Huawei. TSMC is the main supplier
for the Kirin chip sets so this is another major blow to Huawei. I mean if this
comes through then it would be impossible for Huawei to make chip sets and in turn
smartphones because almost every production company in China uses the American made
machine in one way or another. IF the Google ban didn't hurt them as much then
this will surely be going to hurt their business because this would literally
mean they can't make smart phones. We'll have to wait and see if this actually goes
through because high-level meeting is being held this week but if this goes
through then it will also hurt the US because in the long run companies will
try to avoid the US tech and will try to become independent which would drive
the innovation away from the US and would benefit China. Anyway, let me know
your thoughts on this down in the comments and as always I'll see you again…Peace
out!
