The United States Department of Commerce this morning issued updates to a list of rules designed to restrict Huawei’s access to U.S.-based technology. The new restrictions follow a similar decree announced in May, finding the government department engaged in a game of international whack-a-mole as it looks to cut off the Chinese hardware giant’s access entirely.
“It amends our May rule and goes at the problem of Huawei trying to backfill it,” a Commerce Department official said, following the announcement.
