China Bans Major U.S. Chip Maker Micron

CHINA – China says products made by U.S memory chip giant Micron Technology are a national security risk.

The country’s cyberspace regulator announced on Sunday that America’s biggest maker of memory chips poses “serious network security risks”.

It means the firm’s products will be banned from key infrastructure projects in the world’s second largest economy.

It is china’s first major move against a U.S chip maker, as tensions increase between Beijing and Washington.
