Just when we thought things were getting easier for the Chinese based top tech company, America's Facebook is now not allowing any of its apps to be pre-installed on Huawei devices.
According to Facebook, current users of their app on the devices will keep on using them and receiving updates, however the new phones won't have Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp pre-installed.
This is coming just after Google announced cutting ties with Huawei and pulling its license from the mobile phone manufacturer.
According to a Facebook spokesman who spoke with Reuters, the ban will affect any new Huawei mobile phone that hasn't left the factory and not necessarily the future ones.
To complicate the whole issue, you cannot access the Google Play Store with the devices which also means that the users might not find it very easy assessing those apps.
Huawei blacklisted
Already several other companies like Microsoft and even UK based Vodafone have cut ties with them or temporarily suspended doing business.
What we do not know about is the change of mind, or kind of that both SD Association and Wi-Fi Alliance have initially removed Huawei from their list of members, and within a week they reappeared.
Both bodies have however since said that the membership of the phone manufacture has only been amended to reflect that they are honoring the president's executive order.
The decision that was made by both the Wi-Fi Alliance and SD Association makes sense looking at Huawei’s contributions to both bodies and the patents it holds. Completely banning the phone manufacturer would likely hamper both organizations more than it would Huawei.
