Last week, the UK government was reportedly rethinking its decision to use Huawei equipment in its 5G cellular infrastructure. The reconsideration comes after pressure from the US, which has banned the Chinese manufacturer over potential security risks. The British parliament is also concerned over Huawei’s dwindling supply chain, which is forcing it to use unvetted secondary components.
Today, the UK decided it would move forward with a plan that would eliminate Huawei gear from its 5G network by December 31,2027. A Telecoms Security Bill is expected to pass through parliament and go into effect at the end of this year.
