FCC blocks new foreign-made routers over national security risks

The FCC has effectively banned new foreign-made routers from sale in the U.S. by adding them to a "Covered List" due to national security concerns. This action stems from a determination that foreign-made routers are vulnerable to attacks by foreign actors, posing risks to homes and critical infrastructure. The FCC's decision follows similar actions against companies like Huawei, impacting the availability of certain telecommunications products in the U.S. market.
