Not shocking news

I'm not surprised. Doing information security doesn't make you loved by your colleagues. It's like selling condoms. You tell people that prevention is better than cure, and you're seen as stopping all enjoyment.

Absolutely.

Actually IIRC Huawei have been given an OK by CESG in the UK - it needed a code inspection in Cheltenham as past of an openness deal. Lots of hot air being spouted by protectionists.

Do I trust Intel or Qualcomm more than Huawei? Not really.

Filr does the job!

Take a look at Filr. You have total control of your files as they stay on your site (keeping your data in the local jurisdiction).

It is designed to work with Microsoft AD or NetIQ's eDir, and it keeps the file access rights properly. Supports iDevices, Android, Blackberry, Macs and PCs. What's not to like?

It allows you to share (if you want), without duplicating data all the time.
