Interesting — both the sanctions and the counter-sanctions are aimed at blocking Chinese goods from being exported.
0xkevin (🖤 , 💙) (@0xKevin00): China has made its move. The US was just about to ban imports of Chinese-made optical modules, with Trump worried that Chinese manufacturers could use the equipment to steal data.
China’s Ministry of Commerce has now hit back, announcing tightened export controls on drone-related dual-use items to the US.
China accounts for 70% of the global drone market, so it looks like this is going to sting the US too.
