President Donald Trump and FCC Chairman Brendan Carr would like you to think they're protecting Americans from China, that they're closing loopholes that let dangerous objects into the country, the same way Trump wanted you to think <em>other</em> countries would pay Trump's tariffs.<br><br>
But as we've reported for years, they aren't just waging a cold war against China. It's a war against consumers and common sense. Anyone who wants to buy a consumer Wi-Fi router now needs to wait until its maker kisses the ring. <a target="_blank" href="https://link.theverge.com/click/46731080.112939/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cudGhldmVyZ2UuY29tL3RlY2gvODk5OTA2L2ZjYy1yb3V0ZXItYmFuLW1hcmNoLTIwMjYtZXhwbGFpbmVyP3VlaWQ9YmM2MjA3MmM3OWFjN2JlOTkwNDIwZTMzMzVkMGM5NTImYnhpZD02OTI3ODMwZDUyZjk3MTM3MjMwNmMxOGU/6927830d52f971372306c18eB19a75c63" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="text-decoration: underline; color: #5200ff;">Foreign-made routers are dangerous, they claimed</a> — apparently forgetting that <em>almost every router</em> is made outside the US.
<br><br>The same is true of consumer drones and the handy pocket steadycams that drone companies make. They, too, are getting banned because they're designed in China, as if laptop market leader Lenovo wasn't based in China, too.<br><br>Here's the other dumb thing about the drone ban: The FCC was sleeping on the job.</p><p id="apple-intelligence-updates-across-apps" style="margin:0;margin-bottom:16px"></p><p id="safari-is-getting-ai-tab-management-and-more" style="margin:0;margin-bottom:16px">

Warning

Almost all the messages that arrive here are garbage! Resist the urge to click on any unexpected or questionable links.

It may happen that e-mail will claim to come from liamon.com, perhaps from some administrative role or process. There are no users with liamon.com addresses that should be sending anyone e-mail. There are no accounts to expire. There are no passwords to leak. These are certainly garbage messages. These are certainly phishing attempts in some messages.

Absolutely ignore those links!
