Pay particular attention the articles below related to Huawei and their colonization of India via BSNL and Ethiopia via massive telco rollouts. People’s Republic of China & Operation Middle Kingdom…oh yes, Huawei and the colonization of Africa & India….always remember that a significant amount of cyber threat news and alerts will be released on Friday, saturdays and Sundays…when no one is paying attention…

Enjoy –
