China right now wants to takeover the computer and smartphone market.
If they made bugged hardware, western governments would make sure every pleb knows about it and convince them that China will spread their porn viewing habits to friends and family, causing the Chinese companies to lose market share.
Because of this, I would bet their hardware is actually safer than western designed stuff.

Note that this doesn't mean China won't bug western designed stuff that is manufactured in China, since that hurts the competition.

>Can anyone confirm that Huawei poses any additional security risks to individual users other than the narrative that (((they))) are pushing?
It's botnet.
It's as simple as that. You do not have the hardware schematics or source code to audit and control it, it's automatically botnet.

in order to hardware to be compliant for the chinese market it has to bugged to all hell. if you have ever been to china you will see the have surveillance up the ass, and don't even care because they aren't smart enough to understand. you see in the last 50 years china has been running a reverse eugenics programme of removing all smart people, its called communism.
