The U.S.-China tech cold war is about to spread, and that will force leaders to make some difficult decisions. Alphabet Inc.’s Google said it would cease some ties with Huawei, including limiting the Chinese electronics company’s access to its Android mobile operating system. From there, telecom firms in Japan, Britain and Taiwan were among those that halted orders for Huawei’s newest devices. Rather, for countries around the world, it means that every business and investment decision becomes a political one. U.S. technology still leads the world, and it’ll stay that way for a while.
