This Company Makes 65 Percent of the Wi-Fi Routers in U.S. Homes. The Government Wants To Ban Them.

TLDR: The U.S. government is moving to ban TP-Link routers which hold 65% of the American home Wi-Fi market citing national security risks due to the company’s Chinese origins.

Despite TP-Link’s 2022 split creating a U.S.-based entity (TP-Link Systems) and no evidence of actual spying, agencies claim the routers could be exploited by Chinese hackers. The push mirrors the TikTok ban logic: preemptive action based on hypothetical threats rather than proven misconduct.

Critics argue this hysterical approach risks punishing consumers and businesses without concrete evidence, while bipartisan lawmakers demand a ban purely over fears of what could happen.

Sounds to me like the setup to more stock manipulation.
