Major US online retailers remove listings for millions of prohibited Chinese electronics
The Federal Communications Commission's crackdown targets unapproved Chinese telecom and electronic equipment amid national security concerns, leading to removal of millions of listings from U.S. retailers.
- On Friday, Federal Communications Commission Chair Brendan Carr said major U.S. online retail websites removed millions of listings for prohibited Chinese electronics from the Covered List, including Huawei Technologies and ZTE.
- The Federal Communications Commission placed firms on a 'Covered List' that bars authorization of new equipment, citing national security concerns, and in March began investigating nine Chinese companies on the list.
- Recent U.S. actions include steps targeting seven test labs owned or controlled by the Chinese government, while the FCC has previously barred some Chinese companies.
- Retailers and platforms have begun tightening controls to block prohibited items, and Carr said `We're going to keep our efforts up` as the Federal Communications Commission pursues further actions.
- The agency will vote on October 28 to prohibit authorization of devices containing Covered List parts and allow banning sales of some previously authorized equipment.
