Nokia has NSA rooms in their R&D offices. It's creepy.

What's even creepier is that parent company also owns Github.

Microsoft purchased Nokia's Devices & Services division, and rebranded it as Microsoft Mobile. Nokia then pivoted to telecommunications infrastructure and IoT. So there's no longer a relationship between the two companies.

Also, the Nokia smartphone brand is licensed to HMD Global.

I think it's a misunderstanding. I found a couple of articles mentioning both Nokia and NSA, but here NSA stands for Non-StandAlone 5G network.

Here's a press release, for example: Nokia selected by Dedicado for 5G NSA network in Uruguay (https://www.nokia.com/about-us/news/releases/2022/12/08/noki...)

And a Linkedin profile (he must have a room in the office): Yuriy Pavlov - NSA Infrastructure Information Systems Manager. Nokia. (https://www.linkedin.com/in/yuriy-pavlov-1969904)
