These new rules are an important part of our ongoing actions to protect the American people from national security threats involving telecommunications,\u201d&nbsp;FCC Chairperson Jessica Rosenworcel&nbsp;said in a statement.&nbsp;He added that the move had&nbsp;\u201cbroad, bipartisan backing\u201d&nbsp;among the US congressional leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the FCC, the prohibition is the latest step in a years-long effort &#8220;to keep US networks safe&#8221; by identifying and blocking devices deemed to be security concerns. \u201cThe&nbsp;Chinese Communist Party&nbsp;will stop at nothing to exploit our laws and undermine our national security,\u201d he said in a statement. \u201cThis legislation fixes a dangerous loophole in our law, curtailing their efforts to worm their way into our telecommunications networks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why US Govt Opted This:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The move represents&nbsp;Washington\u2019s latest crackdown on the Chinese tech giants&nbsp;amid fears that Beijing could use Chinese tech companies to spy on Americans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>US&nbsp;security officials have warned that equipment from Chinese brands such as&nbsp;Huawei could be used to interfere with fifth-generation (5G)&nbsp;wireless networks and collect sensitive information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The services identified as threats under that law were subsequently subject to the Secure Equipment Act of 2021, which was signed into law by President Joe Biden. That act created the groundwork for Friday\u2019s announcement. It directed the FCC to \u201cadopt rules clarifying that it will no longer review or issue new equipment licenses\u201d to those companies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>US Bans the Use of Chinese Companies Huawei, ZTE Telecom Equipment Sales: The Biden administration has prohibited new telecommunications equipment from China&#8217;s Huawei Technologies and ZTE from being approved because they pose a &#8220;unacceptable risk&#8221; to US national security.
