After the US government cracked down on Chinese tech giant Huawei last week, Google became the first American company to follow the ban.

On Sunday, after Reuters first reported the news, Google admitted it is complying with the US government order and will shut down its business relationship with the Chinese company. Huawei is the world’s third largest smartphone maker after Samsung and Apple, and the company uses Google's Android OS on its phones. According to the company, half a billion people use Huawei cellphones around the world. So this ban has huge ramifications, especially in Europe, where Huawei has a 17 percent market share.
