>lobbyists at ring, nest, and amazon getting an early christmas gift This has no impact on sales to the consumer market for Video, the covered list [1] limits the ban to "the extent it is used for the purpose of public safety, security of government facilities" Ring, Nest etc are used for personal home and small business not likely covered under that ban, and the people buying Hikvision as an example most likely are not the target consumer of Ring devices. Hikvision is / was popular is commercial segment of professionally installed products, I know of zero professional installers doing commercial deployments of Ring. Companies like Axis however do get a boost as Axis is often many times more expensive than Hikvision [1]https://www.fcc.gov/supplychain/coveredlist https://www.fcc.gov/supplychain/coveredlist

"The action we take today covers base station equipment that goes into our networks. It covers phones, cameras, and WiFi routers that go into our homes. And it covers rebranded or ‘white label’ equipment that is developed for the marketplace. In other words, this approach is comprehensive," said Jessica Rosenworcel, chair of the FCC.

  I would would say the "Jessica Rosenworcel, chair of the FCC." need to read the law and regulations they are enforcing, as well as their own published documentations. Like with most government officials I care less what they say in Press Conferences, that has ZERO regulatory weight, or validation and is often hyperbolic or out right false I care about the actual regulation, and rules as implemented and enforced. Also even if they are expanding the devices, this would only apply to camera's with WiFi, Most commercial camera's are POE ethernet not wifi. Using WiFi security camera's is just asking for trouble since it is easy for criminals to take out wifi remotely
