FCC bans all non-us made IoT routers

dude not even Cisco makes their own shit here.

and even if you do slap that stupid fucking made in the USA badging on whatever dipshit IoT device, chips and software are still produced elsewhere. Bet me that they'll shove fuckin goahead webs http server or boa httpd on it, and it'll be just as shit as it was before.

@da_667 Also pretty well known that if you pay a less scrupulous Chinese producer they print Made in the USA or whatever on the product and they might even make the papers too. (I'm pretty sure this is how someone made his Made in USA hats) Sure, there's the hassle to get them into the country, but that's still a minor thing.
