@tim_g are you getting a kickback from that link shortening service? Also, stop posting shortened links. Nobody likes those.

I find these articles on Flipboard, and when I go into them, it uses it's built-in browser. When I "copy link", that's what it gives me.
Don't click on them if you don't like it, i don't feel like taking a lot of extra time to find the real link.

This is a really big deal.
I think small ISP's haven't looked at the entire market to find better products, such as ubiquiti. But, if they are forced out of the market (which I hope they are), then that could also drive up the prices for other manufacturers as demand increases.
But banning products based on country of origin isn't a realistic means of security. Ignoring everything else this doesn't make sense from a security perspective.
I bet a lot of Apple products will be in that category as well as the chips are not made here...
They're not actually banning based on country of origin. They're proposing banning gear made by Hauwei and ZTE.
Ars Technica used terminology "banning Chinese vendors" too. But it still appears to only be the two.

Like in the 1980s?

Kids today probably think that "Ames" is a code word for "abandoned shopping center."

We had one of those in my hometown. It was still going when I was a kid but was vacant for a very long time.

Awe man, their map is broken in The Wayback Machine. I wondered which one of the old department stores in town was the Hills.

We had a Gold Circle, back in East Avon. Became The Hills, I think.
