Popular drone maker DJI has issued a fervent rejection of a recent U.S. District Court ruling, which upheld the Department of Defence's (recently rebranded to the Department of War) designation of the outfit as a "Chinese Military Company." DJI says that it is not tied to the military, is not subject to government control, and says that court findings support this notion.
Last week in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, a judge upheld the DoD's aforementioned decision to include DJI in its Section 1260H list as a "Chinese military company." DJI was added to the list in 2022 and began legal proceedings against the Federal government last year. Following last week's decision, DJI said it was disappointed the court upheld the ruling.
