"Biden Administration Investigates National Security Risks of Chinese Smart Cars"

The Biden administration has announced a probe into Chinese "smart cars" over concerns about data collection and remote disabling capabilities, citing national security and privacy risks for Americans. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo likened these vehicles to "smartphones on wheels" and warned about the potential for foreign adversaries to exploit sensitive data. While some U.S. automakers advocate for taking Chinese car companies seriously, others emphasize the need for measures such as tariffs to prevent their dominance in the international market.
