Aya Lin · · 1 min readIn brief: Google restricts business with Huawei following blacklist, source says
- Google suspended business with Huawei that requires the transfer of hardware, software, and technical services, except those available through open-source licensing, Reuters reports, citing a source familiar with the matter.
- As a result, Huawei will immediately lose access to updates to Google’s Android operating system.
- “Huawei will only be able to use the public version of Android and will not be able to get access to proprietary apps and services from Google,” the source said.
- The Trump administration on Thursday added Huawei to a trade blacklist, immediately enacting restrictions that will make it extremely difficult for the company to do business with US counterparts.
