The debate over Made in China smartphones has started once again. The Lithuanian government has asked its citizens to throw away Chinese smartphones. Not only that, the government has also said, don't buy Chinese phones in future. For this, the government has also highlighted the names of two companies that make smartphones. The government has asked Xiaomi and Huawei to throw away their smartphones. The reason for that is the built-in censorship of the phone. This causes some terms to be blocked in the phone.

The allegation comes at a time when relations between Lithuania and China are not good. A new report from the National Cyber ​​Security Center of the Lithuanian Ministry of Defense blames Chinese smartphones.

The system app automatically sensors 449 terms in Xiaomi phones, according to the report. It includes words like Free Tibet, Long Live Taiwan Independence, Democracy Movement. According to a report by Lithuania Cyber ​​Security, censorship capability was found in Xiaomi's flagship phone Mi 10T 5G in Europe.

The agency said it was closed for the EU region but could be turned on remotely at any time. The Deputy Defense Minister urged the people not to buy new Chinese phones and remove the old ones as soon as possible.

However, according to Xiaomi, their device does not contain any censorship software. They respect and protect users' legal rights. Apart from that, Huawei P40 5G was also found to be defective but OnePlus was not found guilty in the investigation.
