How China Is Threatening U.S. GPS Dominance

The title should be : How China is de-risking from US GPS monopoly
-
An average citizen can see the US media bias. It's pathetic.
-
The US media's effort trying to portrait Chinese achievements and inovative proes as a negative thing for the world is disgusting!
-
China had the US and EU to cooperate with the satellite project two decades ago, but they refused, so China developed its own system by itself.
-
It’s so funny. US ban China from using its GPS , China develops it own. US says it is not Fair! 😮
-
Everything that challenges US hegemony is a threat to them 😂
-
"the beidou system will become a tracking device, an information, device, a surveillance device for the Chinese" which is EXACTLY what the GPS system has been doing as a tracking, information stealing and surveillance device for the US government🤣
-
I’m happy to see so many sober , wise, comments
-
When you see the title, you realize how American media is with the mindset.. whenever others have something, then it's a threat.. this is becoming pathetic.
-
This is not a threat. It is called choice and competition.
-
Can Americans stop thinking that everyone in the world loves your country? Your country is not pure gold.
-
The US gov has repeatedly blocking and jamming GPS signals in areas and ships which we don't like. The Yinhe incident was a strong trigger to make China decide to build their own navigation system.
-
Technology is not only meant for America, everybody can build their own.
-
I’m from South East Asia, we always face problem from American to temporary switch off their GPS and causing our ship lost direction in the sea frequently. Luckily China help us to solve the problem. GPS is not serving the world, it serve American only, on the other hand, China is the only country show helping hand.
-
China did not want to build Beidou. they join the EU Galileo program. however EU decide to nationalise the program and left China out so China has no choice but to develop their own. China has never wish to compete with the West, but the West always abandons China so China has no choice but to depend on itself. the move the West abandon China, the more capabilities China will have on its own. it time the West learn to reflect China as a peer and not think they can't have their own if they are abandoned.
-
Not relying on another nation is called de-risking and protecting national security. That is true for the US, as well as for other countries.
-
I like how when the talk about us gps they show people walking and using phones and when they show China they show soldiers marching and military equipment
-
Threatening U.S. GPS dominance? How about "breaking U.S. GPS dominance"? There is no need to watch the full video to know it was totally biased.
-
I should clarify that the Chinese develop the Beidou System is not merely for the Taiwan issue. Far earlier beyond that. In the seventies or eighties when Iran was banned for shipping weapons and military devices, at a time a Chinese merchant ship on the way to Iran, which was suspected by the US to ship arsenals, suddenly was shut down of its GPS, that the captain of the ship could not go on the trip. Later, the ship was stopped by a US warship in the open water. Search was conducted and found nothing but ordinary goods. But the Chinese Government was furious that how can a Chinese ship be searched in an open water by other country's vessel? How can the US do this way? It's obviously hegemony. The Chinese Government could not suffer any longer that they should develop their own GPS. That is, Beidou. The US, they ask for it.
