Oh boy. If you think using a Windows PC opens you up to vulnerabilities, just wait until you give all of your personal information to Huawei.

I doubt this is aimed at Western markets. Mostly mainland China (even Apple with its arrogant "digital privacy" marketing, fully cooperates with the CCP in mainland China) and possibly some other countries like Pakistan or nations in Africa without a big PC installed base.

Isnt HarmonyOS based on Android? Interesting solution for a PC OS. Definitely not for me either way.

The latest version of Harmony is supposed to be fully independent with its own kernel, userland, UI/UX, application format and all that jazz. Earlier versions were based on AOSP.

I thought it used the Linux kernel, I guess that changed.
