If TikTok & WeChat Go Away, Is It Still Safe to Use Tin Cans With String? | EMBARGOED! Episode 13 EMBARGOED!

    • Business News

EMBARGOED! is back! After a brief, socially-distanced summer vacation, Brian and Tim return to tackle the messy, unprecedented U.S. government actions targeting TikTok and WeChat. Next, we return to one of our favorite topics, Huawei, to analyze the impact of the BIS final rule, which makes another attempt to disrupt the company's supply chain by further expanding the foreign direct product rule. We also discuss the first wave of sanctions targeting Hong Kong and its top officials and ponder whether this was anything more than a symbolic gesture. Plus, in the Lightning Round we share some thoughts on recent Entity List additions targeting, for the first time, activities in the South China Sea, a Xinjiang-related addition to the SDN List causing significant due diligence headaches, and, at long last, the publication of the Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking regarding "foundational technologies."
