"Biden Launches Probe into National Security Risks of Chinese Smart Cars"
The Biden administration has ordered an investigation into the national security risks posed by Chinese-made "smart cars" that can potentially gather sensitive information about American drivers, with concerns about China using advanced technology in electric and connected vehicles to track and spy on individuals. The probe could lead to new regulations aimed at safeguarding Americans' data, and the Commerce Department will seek input from the auto industry and the public on potential risks and mitigation steps. This action is part of broader efforts to protect personal data from foreign adversaries and prevent Chinese vehicles from flooding the U.S. market, with concerns about cyber risks and espionage.
