Total crap;either it is a security risk and it has to be removed yesterday or it is not. 2027 is meaningless.

A potential security risk in a conflict with China doesn’t mean an existential eminent risk.

That equipment is everywhere it will take years and cost billions to remove and replace.

And yes there has been already pushback around it both in terms of demands to lower the time frame to 3 years and to increase it to 10.
