La FCC amplía la lista de dispositivos restringidos a robots aspiradores extranjeros

El 30 de julio la Comisión Federal de Comunicaciones (FCC) incluyó en su Covered List los robots aspiradores fabricados en el extranjero, deteniendo nuevas autorizaciones de la FCC, en Washington, D. C. La medida se enmarca en una serie de restricciones iniciadas a principios de julio.

El 27 de julio la FCC añadió a la Covered List inversores de energía y robots avanzados de origen extranjero, citando riesgos de ciberseguridad y de la cadena de suministro. La administración de Trump había prohibido la importación de robots humanoides y cuadrúpedos chinos, y la FCC amplió posteriormente la prohibición para cubrir también robots aspiradores y cortacéspedes. Funcionarios chinos advirtieron que podrían tomar medidas de represalia.
