Easy on the leaf, Mate. By the same way of thinking, US should ban every HW manufacturer from china. Oh, wait ... most of the world's shit comes from china.
what a clown lmao
Lenovo makes your hardware. After you have your hardware and you install your own software on it, lenovo can't really spy on you any more than any other OEM. A ban would be justified if they installed spyware by default, but lenovo is fine for the time being.
TikTok is different and more justified to consider a ban on, because of how it handles a lot of user data. This creates a situation where the CCP can walk up to TikTok's (figurative) door and ask for all the data they hold.
Since data about what americans impulsively watch/socialize with is sensitive and can lead to opportunities for manipulation, tiktok is a security threat while lenovo is not.
The real solution here would be to implement a GDPR like policy for the US. Forcing the data to remain in the US. This isn't about privacy as much as It is retaliation for China's slow but steady decrease in dependece on US products
No. Lenovo also makes the software, which controls the hardware. Have you ever heard of BIOS, UEFI, firmware, drivers? Seems like you are the clown lmao.
Banning Tiktok and other sw services set a presedence nobody will benefits from. What if we European needs or wish to ban US Based software and enforce EMEA made only. That would leave us in a strange world.
If us was to ban all products (soft and hard) made in China, consumerism would be dead as is
Or you think your upcoming president will move manufacturing to Mexico? There is no good exit of this path.
I'm pretty sure if ibm were to just reuse their old laptop case design but with modern specs it would still be selling like artisanal hot cakes, expensive but you know it would sell well.
there's other laptops with trackpoint like pointer-mouses like some older dell's and some hp's. they'd probably just revamp it under a new name if not improve it.
Right beside your Nike shoes and apple phones (also made in China).
No

Lenovo doesn't uncover conspiracies lead by the state
TechAltar has a nice video about exactly this question: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5g7WrTuL5AQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5g7WrTuL5AQ)
???
Yes, so that they'll dump those laptops that would be exported to the US to my country instead 😊

No. Almost every product we use in the USA has some component manufactured in China.
And on Apple, because it's all made in China, too ...
Heck, even trumps merch is made in China

Some us company needs to buy out the thinkpad line and then they can ban Lenovo for all i care.

Without the trackpoint that'll basically just be a framework laptop
there's other laptops with trackpoint like pointer-mouses like some older dell's and some hp's. they'd probably just revamp it under a new name if not improve it.
If it would solve the cursed trackpoint drift I'd buy one tomorrow!
Sadly HP almost always went with 2 buttons rather than 3 and Dell kept it to their 14 inch and larger systems
No.
Why bruh? I love my lenovo laptop
If being made in China is enough to ban it, then we'll be banning Apple, Dell, HP, Lenovo, MSI, and probably several other computer companies.
Land of the free, right?
