In a turn of events that practically no one expected, The United States has added its “Entity List” , a list of entities that are considered dangerous due to their links with the Chinese government, with DJI company, a company that mainly manufactures action cameras and drones.

This list has been widely known due to the famous veto of Huawei that the United States exercised this year, something that has caused serious havoc to the company and that has mainly left to Huawei without the possibility of having Google services , at the same time that its selection of processors will be seriously limited.

This implies that drones like the DJI Mini 2, camera Action ace like the DJI Osmo Action, or stabilizers like the DJI Osmo Mobile 3, will no longer be available to US consumers , and although in the telecommunications section it is understandable that the United States may be afraid of possible espionage through the network, it is difficult to know why a gimbal can be a national security issue.

Be that as it may, this is the end, for now, of the distribution of DJI devices in United States, something that we do not know if it will extend to Hasselblad, a Swedish subsidiary of the brand.
