Huawei is banned from supplying 5G equipment in Canada
This means it's now fully banned across the five-eyes alliance of the USA, UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. Canadian companies will have until June 2024 to remove it - at their own cost and without reimbursement from the Canadian government. They say it's a move to protect their critical telecommunications infrastructure of the future from foreign interference.
There isn't an easy answer explaining who owns Huawei, and many allegations of subverting sanctions, fraud, espionage.
Using the wrong USB-C cable? Your Chromebook will now tell you
USB-C is a very confusing piece of technology. Your cable may have a USB-C connection, but that doesn't mean it can do everything possible with USB-C. Some USB-C cables can handle high power currents, others can't, they can handle various speeds of data, some are Thunderbolt, some are DisplayPort. Depending on the feature depends on the maximum length the cable can be. So soon, when you plug the wrong cable into your Chromebook and wonder why something isn't working, your computer will help you figure it out.
