This part written Goldman, just want to regurgitate it one bit. It is that old expression, "a means to an end."
Huawei 5G is not the end, it is the means to the end.
That is very important. I thought that was understood by everybody, but I realized that people have trouble understanding tech. What Goldman is saying here, that the Trump administration did not understand, and that the professors and ex-officials from the Clinton/Obama administration did not understand. Essentially Goldman was saying these people are stupid.
Hehe . . .
David Goldman is correct. That is why he cannot write for mainstream media. He gives his honest opinion and tell what he believes is the truth. In his opinion, these people, cough cough, the ruling American elite, they don't get it.
That is unusual. America is a big country. If those goof balls do not understand, just get Bill Gates or Elon Musk to explain it to them.
The American ruling class cannot fathom how far behind they really are in the race for 5G. They probably 3 to 5 years behind just building the 5G network. Who knows what would be left for them to innovate on and not encroach on a patent already filed.
They cannot write 5G software when there is no 5G network, which has to be a standalone network. That is the strangest thing about the Trump administration. Why didn't they go ahead and just build out the base stations like mad? Try to stop Huawei or slow it down? They did not do a good job a that either. The 5G network has to be built, regardless of what anyone else does. And they did not do it.
Goldman knows it is stupid what happened these last 4 years. But he cannot say anything because if he does he will be labelled unpatriotic and lynched. Since he is an ethnic minority, that is assured.
