. This is because Trump is seen as backpedaling on Huawei.
. Android is the go-to operating system for those that aren’t into iOS, but that may not be the case forever. Samsung has been developing its own Tizen OS for some time now, even using it on some smartphones. Now it could be Huawei’s turn: The South China Morning Post says Huawei has been working on an Android alternative.

1. Security issues. We (the public) won't really have this info.
If there are some security issues with .gov usage, that is addressed some other way.
2. Political posturing.
Has to do with elections, presumably, or specific business interests.
May or may not have to do with long term interests.
3. Economics issues (that Wall St cares about and Main St depending on which Main).
A lot of people think this ends up hurting Apple revenue in China.
But by and large, that would probably hurt Chinese labor (Foxconn labor).
This is where people don't really understand the difference between an

Interesting, doesn't support the narrative that some are trying to push here.
While the suicide rates of Americans in all demographics have been on the rise over the last 30 years, farmers have the highest rate of suicide than any other occupation — five times that of the rest of the US population
