The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) said on Sept. 8 that it has launched proceedings to revoke the accreditation of seven China-based test labs that certify electronic devices for use in the United States.

The FCC determined that the seven test labs pose national security risks to the United States because they are owned or controlled by the Chinese communist regime, according to an agency statement.
