    New Bill Introduced Banning DJI In US is Serious - With FCC Punch

    As far as one Nation accusing another of gathering data on the other I simply have this to say: when you point a finger there are three pointing back at you. To wit, we do our own share of Intelligence gathering. "You seem to disbelieve there is an issue as has been claimed by the fed gov again...

    I'm angry. I found a vocation that I thought I could really enjoy. I am on Social InSecurity so it was a big expense and now this DJI issue rears it's head. I'm unsure what to do but with that said it would take forever for this to be passed into Law..... Frustrating.

    Moldorf, thanks for the feedback. (1) If someone takes the time to respond to a Thread I started I am going to do my best to respond. To not do so would be, IMHO, rude. (2) As Vic Moss pointed out and what I am conveying is simply what he wrote: "The real danger is if this is added to the...

    " Vic, you understand where I am coming from when you wrote "The real danger is if this is added to the Countering CCP Drone Act, or the 2023 FAA Reauthorization Act. That's where we truly need to be vigilant.". Thank you. That is my whole point and my grave concern as well. If the FCC says...

    After 40 years as a Network Administrator for Fortune 500 Corporations with deep pockets to buy the latest and greatest, "Secure and Trusted Communications Networks" is an oxymoron.

    You're not the only one. I just bought one and am thinking of returning it. I don't need an expensive paperweight.

    Right now they are focused on National Security. They are not concerned whether Walmart, Amazon or BestBuy takes a financial hit (which they'll just write off anyway). If I were DJI, I'd be very concerned.

    Mark_F, I am far from a Chinaphobe and have many Chinese friends. I was sole Hardware support for 200 Engineers at a Qualcomm facility with absolutely brilliant Chinese and Indian Engineers. Astoundingly brilliant. There were American Engineers as well of course. It was there that they...

    "Even if it's possible". Remember this?

    Thanks 13+Dragons! Good point but the FCC can rescind prior approvals, and most certainly can and will when it comes to any issue whatsoever with respect to National Security. And that is what they're concerned about. That said, are the Chipsets in a 2021 DJI product the same in a 2023 Model...
