WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Democratic National Committee warned party candidates running in November elections not to use devices made by Chinese telecommunications companies ZTE Corp and Huawei Technologies because they pose a security risk, a Democratic source said on Friday.
U.S. lawmakers and the Trump administration have pressured U.S. companies to not sell Huawei or ZTE (000063.SZ) products, saying they potentially could be used to spy on Americans. Earlier this year they pushed AT&T (T.N) to drop a deal with Huawei to sell its smartphones in the United States.

The Democratic National Committee obviously needs to hire a full-time cybersecurity expert. I would suggest this person. She is currently available (her last job fell through).

Or might that be seen as betrayal to their Fellow Travelers ?

I am using a ZTE Maven phone because it was $40 instead of iPhones costing several hundred dollars.
I hope the Chicoms spent hours listening to my conversations and learned nothing.
