China will remove Windows 10 from its military computers due to the trade war in the United States
China's counterattack to Huawei's veto begins with the replacement of Windows 10 on all equipment in military posts, being replaced by Linux.
A few weeks ago the United States began hostilities towards China by veto Huawei company. The company is the second most important in the smartphone market and the most advanced in 5G networks. Apple because of Huawei is falling in the smartphone market, well, because of the Chinese company and Apple's uselessness to innovate. There is increasing commercial tension between the two countries and things are looking bad. China's latest move has been to remove Windows 10 from all military forces computers.
China removes Windows 10 from its army computers for fear of being hacked
Banning Huawei in the United States has been quite a controversial decision. Many American companies, led by Google, have abandoned the Chinese company. All for an alleged spying from China to the United States. What's more, such espionage has been known to the CIA and the NSA have illegally spied on Huawei. The most regrettable of all this is that the Trump administration has not yet provided the slightest proof.
Everything indicates that removing Windows 10 from China's military equipment is only the first step. This information has been released by Kanwa Asian Defense magazine. This media not only highlights that they changed the operating system to Linux, they also ensure that they would have an exclusive platform for military use.
Some specialists assure that this is only the first step for a counterattack by the Chinese government. What's more, this trade war could start to take its toll on US companies with interests in China. At the end of everything we will end up paying everyone, as always. A trade war, on the other hand, that could be extended to Europe, is that Trump also wants to put tariffs on certain European products.
