Security · 23 Oct 2026US bans dashboard camera and wireless video transmitter under new chip-level security rule

The US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has issued its first bans under a new rule allowing it to block devices based on the internal chips they contain, rather than specific products or brands. The bans, announced on 23 October 2026, target a dashboard camera and a wireless video transmitter because they contain a chip from HiSilicon, a Huawei subsidiary on the US government's national security risk list.
