Huawei Removes EMUI Firmware Downloads from their Website

Some of us are used to being able to visit a website to directly download a new update for a smartphone or tablet. Google does this and OnePlus does as well, but even community members maintain websites for other OEMs as well. Huawei used to do this via a downloads page on the emui.huawei.com website, but XDA Senior Member RedSkull23 just brought to our attention that this is changing. If you visit this downloads page right now you’ll be greeted with the following message. . .

"To deliver a more convenient and satisfactory update service, Huawei now only provides online updates for its phones, Tables, etc. SD card update packages are no longer supplied.By this time,all the SD card upgrade packages will be removed from the website and the download page will be closed."

Well this is a step backwards and I recall with a model of Samsung Galaxy I once had, it was not installing with the phone download and my only option was to download manually and flash it locally. Why take options away from consumers?
