Real Threat: The United States will prohibit the import of systems and software from China and RF for local cars

Washington believes that equipment and software from Moscow and Beijing poses a serious threat to the US and its citizens. All because of the high probability of hacker attacks thanks to such "software". The US Presidential Administration Joe Baiden proposed to restrict sales, as well as imports of Russian and Chinese equipment and software (software) for American car manufacturers, which will, according to the US Department of Commerce, protect against a "very real" hacker threat.

About it reports Bloomberg. The media writes that the ban will apply to devices and systems in cars that use Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular or satellite system. In the US, such systems are at risk of "foreign intervention", which can lead to failures and sabotage. US Trade Minister Gina Raymondso said in a comment to journalists that it is not about trade or economic benefits, but about national security measures.

" "We are focused on the threat of national security, a very real threat that the vehicles are connected to our country and the American people," the minister said. According to Raymonds, modern cars have cameras, microphones, GPS sights and other technologies connected to the Internet. She notes that "there is no lot of imagination to understand what a serious threat to the national security and privacy of US citizens can be foreign attackers who have access to this information.

" Bloomberg points out that Biden administration plans to impose a restriction after the US Ministry of Trade in 2024 has started an investigation into the threat of US State Security from vehicles with China. Then the representatives of the department pointed out that the installed Chinese software on American machines can collect personal data of users through the installed sensors and sensors.

The media notes that new restrictions will be applied for transport produced in 2027, and software restrictions for those cars that will be made after 2030. Also, since January 1, 2029, the ban will be extended to those of the specified year of production. On June 13, the EU has introduced new huge duties on Chinese electric vehicles.
