A Chinese firm is America's favorite drone maker -- except in Washington
There has never been any evidence that DJI drones purposely feed data
to China. Their app had some issues with data leakage that have been
fixed, and were very much the same sort that innumerable apps made in
the USA have had (and probably continue to have). DJI drones aren't
just the majority brand used recreationally, but are enormously
important in public safety, agriculature, utilities, an almost
endless list. There simply are not U.S.-made alternatives that meet
the requirements in terms of reliability, support, and cost. This
China-bashing crusade by Congress (and the administration) isn't
making the U.S. safer but is doing significant damage to our own
citizens who choose DJI tech because it does the job.
