The FCC has been steadily expanding its restrictions on Chinese technology, banning imports of new foreign-made consumer routers in March, new foreign-made drones in December, and proposing restrictions on Chinese involvement in undersea cables last year.

yahrightthere Yep just keep pilling it on the American people under the idiom of National Security, which in this case doesn't exist, much as the paranoid government would have you believe. Think it's time to pack it in and move to China/Taiwan/Hong Kong!, least the tech would be a bit cheaper & money would go further. Perhaps Dominican Republic or some other tropical destination. Reply

If it weren't for the cartel violence I would seriously consider moving to Mexico. Especially because anything you can't get in Mexico you can just bring in from the US (even elderly Tuscon residents). It would be hilarious if Americans started moving to Mexico in droves. Reply

You'll be surprised at the amount and the range of US "migration" to Mexico. There are whole industries from realtors to lawyers (fluent in English) that are dedicated to make it a seamless affair. There are lots of groups of expats on Facebook who are quite helpful in providing info for those looking for help or exploring the possibilities. Reply
