> Huawei destroyed Nortel through grand-scale espionage and robbery.
At least according to Wikipedia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nortel#Accounting_restatements ), Nortel had some epic accounting issues long before the hacks (of both Nortel & Cisco) which your source claims. Cisco is still around.
Perhaps Nortel self-destructed, with no more help from Haiwei than Enron or Bernie Madoff needed, and it feels better to blame Dark Lord China for Bad_Thing happening?
