www.bbc.com/news/business-46465768The CFO of Chinese tech-giant Huawei was grabbed by authorities in Canada on December 1st, apparently at the request of the US. And it looks like she'll soon be extradited to the US. It's not clear what charges she'll face in the US, or even that she'll face any at all. Everyone is pretty tight-lipped about this. But China sure-as-shit ain't happy, though it's amusing to see China scream "human rights violation!," given it's own history with nabbing foreigners.

I dunno, robeiae , it sounds like a typical CIA stunt to me. The story will be in which "American-made components" she sold. Are they rationally prohibited, or just on the list for political purposes such as this?

www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-46548614It would be funny, if this wasn't putting people's lives in jeopardy. China--the most populated country on the planet with the second largest GDP--is freaking out because one of its citizen's has been taken into custody and may end up in the US to face possible charges in court. You know what? I'm okay with China's reaction in isolation, because it's what governments are supposed to do: look out for their citizens and not allow other governments to pull these kinds of stunts. But in context, China's response is bullshit. Because its government pulls this shit all the time, and does other things like stealing drones in international waters, and other countries take it, all the damn time.
