Congress Moves to Ban Sales of DJI Technology and Autel Robotics Drones Amid National Security Concerns
Dec 23, 2024, 07:00 PM
U.S. lawmakers are moving to ban new sales of drones from two leading Chinese manufacturers, DJI Technology and Autel Robotics. This initiative arises from concerns that these drones could be used for surveillance on American citizens and that their low-cost models are negatively impacting the domestic drone industry. Many Americans have become reliant on these Chinese-made drones for various purposes, prompting a significant debate about the implications of such a ban. While Congress has passed a bill that could restrict these drones, it includes provisions for a review to determine if they pose an 'unacceptable' risk to U.S. national security. The economic and technological rivalry between the U.S. and China is increasingly evident in the drone market, where Chinese products dominate.
