my flagged post was about how the OP misinterpreted the chinese phrase (since you asked i include below). thats why I questioned what his point is. in my old post i was also critisizing huaweis early products as cheap knockoff but he seemed not bothered to quote.

> In China, stealing trade secrets is called “打破技术封锁” (breaking the technical blockade).

Wow. This is a blatant lie. Where did you get this piece? The Chinese phrase means developing the technology to a certain level that an embargo no longer works as intended. There are plenty examples in space technologies - US prohibits NASA collaboration with China and there are indigenous innovation breakthrough from within like landing on the far side of the moon.
