A new discussion about Hikvision's Chinese government ownership causing problems for Hikvision dealers as clients object:

That the Chinese government controls Hikvision is fact. The primary evidence is significant.

It will be interesting to see how many end users care, certainly lots of integrators already do (e.g., see Hikvision Favorability Results). In particular, the fact that this integrator is from the UK is somewhat surprising since most ascribe Hikvision government ownership concerns to being an American issue.

What are you seeing from end users about Hikvision's government ownership? No issue? Issue?

As matters escalate with North Korea, and with China as their ally, I believe this concern will become more and more prevalent, irrespective of the country.
