The U.S. FCC just slapped a ban on new foreign-made humanoid robots and power inverters, citing national security — a clear shot at China, which dominates 85% of the global humanoid robot market. Four-legged robot dogs are also off-limits, accused of cyber risks and supply chain disruption. This move comes right before Trump and Xi’s September summit, triggering China’s fiery response calling it protectionist. While the ban may shield U.S. developers, experts say it won’t halt China’s robotics surge — they’ve got massive domestic production and global export routes. Existing devices and approved models remain unaffected, leaving the tech race far from over as tensions simmer ahead of the big meeting.
