huawei isn’t really private like people in the US think. chinese law forces them to help with spying if the government asks—no warrants no way to refuse. the ownership isn't super documented, they’ve got a communist party office inside, and they’re basically bankrolled by the state. it’s “private” the way a sock puppet is independent.

i like coffee, crypto, animals, plants, drones, 3D printing, midjourney, and stickers

btw def meant CCP office not "communist office" that sounds overtly hostile towards communism which i'm not 🤪

Very true. 

But from an economic perspective that was a pleasant surprise.

That doesn't sound different than a US company in that aspect, except perhaps more explicit (there's always a backdoor), but that's a different thing than whether it's worker owned or not.
