Trouble is likely to arise for Chinese automobile companies who are doing business in India after US President Joe Biden on Friday directed the Department of Commerce to investigate the national security risks from vehicles that incorporate technology from China. As per the statement by the White House, the government was taking this step after it emerged that new vulnerabilities and threats could arise from these automobiles if a foreign government gained access to these vehicles’ systems or data.
The Biden administration said that these vehicles collect large amounts of sensitive data on their drivers and passengers; regularly use their cameras and sensors to record detailed information on US infrastructure; interact directly with critical infrastructure; and can be piloted or disabled remotely and these could be exploited in ways that threaten national security.
