In January, before President Trump left office, Chinese electronics company Xiaomi was added to a blacklist by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) following its classification as a “Communist Chinese military company.” That decision has now been reversed.
Xiaomi responded to the blacklisting by filing a lawsuit where it denied the allegations it had ties to the Chinese military or was a Communist Chinese military company. As Bloomberg reports, a federal judge in March sided with Xiaomi and blocked the restrictions from being imposed.
