Common Office Desk Phone Could Be Leaking Info To Chinese Government, Govt Report Alleges A major Chinese phone maker could be putting U.S. consumers, companies, and even national security data at risk, and a U.S. senator wants to know what the Commerce Department is going to do about it. As DefenseOne first reported , in a Sept. 28 letter obtained by Defense One, Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., described a report that raises serious concerns about the security of audio-visual equipment produced and sold into the U.S. by Chinese firms such as Yealink. Yealink doesnt have the name recognition of the controversial Chinese telecom giant Huawei , but its phones are widely installed across the United States, including in government agencies. In September, Yealink and Verizon announced plans to sell the nations first 4G/LTE cellular desk phone. In the letter, Van Hollen asked Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo whether her agency is aware of the report by Chain Security, a Virginia-based company that analyzes electronics for security.

Rep. Jordan Indicates He Won''t Cooperate With Jan. 6 Committee As It Is Not "Fair-Minded And Objective" Authored by Katabella Roberts via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours), Rep.

In a letter to committee Chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) dated Jan. 9, Jordan cited several reasons as to why he feels that he does not need to cooperate with the panels request, including that he has no relevant information that would assist them in their investigation or in advancing any legitimate legislative purpose. However, Jordan stopped short of stating that he would not cooperate with the committee. The American people are tired of Democrats nonstop investigations and partisan witch hunts, Jordan began his letter. Your letter of December 22, 2021, unfortunately, continues this Democrat obsession.
