Some U.S. senators have urged the intelligence community to review the risks of a possible deal between Apple and a state-owned Chinese chipmaker, citing threats to privacy and national security.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA), Senate Intelligence Committee vice chairman, wrote to Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines following reports that Apple Inc. was considering procuring NAND memory chips from the Yangtze Memory Technologies Co. (YMTC).
