From CNET: Huawei is gearing up to sue the US government over the ban on federal agencies using its products, reports said Monday.
The Chinese telecom will file its lawsuit in the Eastern District of Texas (its US headquarters is located in Plano, Texas) according to the New York Times and Reuters, each of which cited anonymous sources.
It'll apparently challenge an addition to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which President Donald Trump signed last year, Reuters reported.
The company, which has been mired in scandal, will reportedly announce the suit on Thursday, when it holds a press conference at its headquarters in Shenzhen, China.
Washington has long deemed Huawei's products a security threat due to its close links with the Chinese government, saying that its equipment could be used to spy on other countries and companies. That's why Huawei's smartphones are hard to come by the US despite its status as the world's no. 2 smartphone maker.
