The West would be equally foolish to trust Chinese gear. Israel showed us how a supply chain attack can essentially win a war before it starts. Xi is no doubt taking notes.
The Chinese tech doesn't have to physically explode. It can just stop working. Suppose there is a 512-bit random string that triggers networking gear. The device repeats that packet on all ports for 60 seconds, then wipes its firmware and shuts down.
China could turn off its enemies' networks when war starts.
