If we had a real SCOTUS then both this and the TikTok ban would be dead on day one for clearly violating the prohibition on Bills of Attainder in the Constitution.

Drone maker DJI is based in China and controls over 70% of the world’s drone market share, a combination that threatens U.S. lawmakers. As we first reported in April, 6% of DJI stock lies in the hands of Chinese state-owned businesses, which has led to fears of Chinese government backdoors, national security risks, and other fears of Chinese surveillance using the company’s drones.

Elise Stefanik, the Republican representative from New York who sponsors the anti-DJI legislation, said of the drones, “DJI presents an unacceptable national security risk, and it is past time that drones made by Communist China are removed from America.” Of course, this unacceptable risk h

I gotta wonder, the more this kind of stuff picks up steam the more risky Chinese companies are going to view investing in American exports. When, if ever, do we reach the tipping point where Chinese companies currently selling things that simply aren’t produced in America anymore stop sending them because the risk is too high?

I will say, had a chuckle when I saw these two posts in succession in your post feed

So to your own point, as long as there is at least one person with a credit card ready to go, probably no tipping point.

Well one is talking about a personal buyer choosing to buy a $200 HDMI cable that cost $0.50 to manufacture and spent $5 on marketing, and the other is talking about Chinese companies investing millions of dollars into shipping goods across the Pacific potentially deciding that the risk of their deliveries not being able to be made is more than the gains of selling them in that particular country, so they’re not related concepts at all.

The US is so inept at manufacturing, yet wants to fight China. We can pretend to punish them, but 98% of all products bought and sold in the USA are “Made In China”.

I have a really old one sitting in the closet. Am I going to have to get rid of it if this passes?

Meaning, if you have it, you can do what you want other than (re)selling it?

Sam_Bass ,

Im not going to sell it because i use it to inspect my roof after a strong storm front coming over it

Yet another case showing how useful drones are.

Lot safer than climbing a ladder and stomping around up there potentially creating more damage

I use mine to check if my solar panels are dirty or if leaves/branches have fallen on them, and I used it to take photos of the roofers’ work when I had my house reroofed.

srecko ,

You can even sell it on second hand market I believr. This is more of a “don’t inport it because you won’t be able to sell it” and is important to companies.

ulterno ,
@ulterno@lemmy.kde.social avatar

Right. Because after you buy it, it is your drone made by DJI and not DJI’s drone.

Guess some of the laws still have their premises correct.
