U.S. steps up blocks on Chinese-made devices from telecoms gear to drones and robot vacuums
The U.S. government is expanding import and sales restrictions that once targeted Chinese telecommunications equipment to a wider range of consumer devices, including drones, routers and robot vacuum cleaners. The Federal Communications Commission has tightened rules since the launch of Donald Trump’s second administration, limiting approvals for new models of certain foreign-made products. Supporters cite national security risks, while critics point to limited public evidence, unclear exemption standards and supply chain challenges.

Unitree survives new U.S. China tech curbs, can still sell six existing robot models
Chinese robot company Unitree said it can continue selling six key robot models in the United States despite new U.S. curbs on Chinese technology. It said it had already secured Federal Communications Commission equipment approvals for major humanoid and quadruped robots before the stricter rules took effect. The FCC has expanded its Covered List on national security grounds, which could limit market entry for new products. Unitree warned new models developed after the cutoff could face restrictions.
