Not open source, unfortunately.
They’re probably worried about articles criticising the code close to launch. No one’s gonna bother verifying, it’s a lot of effort to verify, but it sounds credible enough if someone claims Burger Technology read the code and found a potential vulnerability, or didn’t use best practice, or something is inefficient/bad code, or just like, look, here’s proof that they collect metrics, this is unprecedented spyware.
It sucks obviously, I’m hoping it’ll become open sourced and more in the future. But I understand the business impact calculus being very different for Huawei vs Samsung or Fairphone.
That’s actually a really good point.

I’m sure that some ultra nerd would go and read the source code. But it doesn’t matter, because even if Robert Fosslover reads the whole repository and writes on his blog that it’s actually free of spyware, nobody is gonna hear about it anyway or if they do, they’ll call him a see see pee chill.
There is openharmony which is open source but I don’t know its relation to harmonyos or harmonyos next. Hopefully we get slathered with communist open source software as time goes by.

There’s probably lots, but not in English.
plz xi save me from tim apple
saw this news on r/technology and went to read the comments. I should know better, such a waste of brain cells
I think it’s actually kind of funny how western propaganda convinced people that China isn’t capable of doing anything on its own. The whole notion that there’s no innovation, and Chinese are only able to copy what brilliant western minds produce is really deeply ingrained at this point. However, now western leadership is in a panic because they’re starting to realize China is overtaking the west technologically, but you can’t undo decades of conditioning over night, so it’s really hard to get westerners to actually believe it.
