The U.S. Department of State says it is investigating Huawei Technologies for allegedly providing censorship and mobile phone tracking technology to Iran. The allegations arose after The Wall Street Journal published a report in October linking Huawei’s export of tech to Iran with the country’s suppression of dissidents using mobile tracking technology. Six lawmakers asked Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to investigate Huawei for possibly violating sanctions against Iran. Huawei has said it’s business activities have been “grossly misrepresented” in Iran, adding that the company has never been involved with tracking or censorship technology.”]
