The FCC just banned new foreign-made humanoid robots and robot dogs, citing cybersecurity risks. With China holding ~85% of the global humanoid market, this is effectively a China ban.

For buyers outside the US, this creates short-term opportunities… and the same data-dependency risks US regulators just cited as the reason for the ban.
