The U.S. government is proposing a ban on Chinese and Russian software and hardware in vehicles that have external communication and autonomous driving features. The move is driven by national security concerns, aiming to prevent potential foreign threats posed by these technologies, reports Nikkei.
The ban targets systems like vehicle connectivity (VCS), which use Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to connect cars to the cloud as well as automated driving systems (ADS) that enable autonomous driving. The proposed rule aims to address these threats before they become widespread in the U.S.
