Jonathan Shiell's Blog: The Chinese Flag of Inconvenience
It seems that one company operating under the Chinese flag has run into difficulties caused by their country's actions. Huawei provides infrastructure equipment for Internet providers and is based in China. However, it is owned (in the first instance) by its employees rather than the Chinese Empire oops I meant the Government of China. This has not prevented it from being accused of putting “backdoors” (deliberate, hidden flaws in security) in the products that it supplies:

Indeed, it is questionable whether there are any “back door” weaknesses in a router. Their operation is fairly transparent and it is hard to shut them down or sneakily interfere with their operation. Besides, if sensitive data is being passed through then it should be encrypted between sender and recipient anyway; this would confound any attempt at spying.
So, the moral of the story is? Choose your flag with care, otherwise you could get lumped with a government known for spying and invading privacy. Some flags are not flags of convenience by any means, and the Chinese flag is one of them.
