Chinese tech giant Huawei has filed a motion in a US court challenging the constitutionality of a law that limits its sales of telecoms equipment, the latest action in an ongoing clash with Washington.

Huawei's chief legal officer Song Liuping said the firm had filed a motion for summary judgment asking the court to rule on whether it is constitutional for the US to implement a military spending provision that bars the government and its contractors from using its equipment.

Mr Song said the "state-sanctioned campaign" against the company will not improve cybersecurity.

"Politicians in the US are using the strength of an entire nation to come after a private company," he said. "This is not normal."

    Ideological attack on any corporation is an attack against Liberty, a step into totality.

    Corporations are a fabrication created by Governments, their very existence is an attack against Liberty.

      Corporations are a fabrication created by Governments

      On the contrary, it's quite reversed. Businesses set up and finance governments to protect their contracts. If the financing dries up, and is redirected towards the opposition, the government disappears, and a more compliant one is created.

    Totality and Totalitarianism, which you probably meant, are two different things. Look them up in a dictionary. Maybe consider ESL course.
