None of us are surprised by this story, I know. There is a serious point to it if girls are trafficed and/or coerced. But there's no mention that this was alleged, just that there were a lot of girls to call on and they were "put to work", in a use of pejorative language.
The press and media really are shit.
Huawei have nothing to do with this but their name is plastered over the headlines and stories because "traction".
They mention cheerleader outfits because "titlation".
They seem surprised that people with mobile phones might use a messaging app. Ah but not a normal one, rather a highly secret one only used by (checks notes) all Chinese people.
