According to the department’s statement the company used illegal methods to gain information, the Deputy Secretary of Commerce Don Graves said, “This rule reaffirms the protection of human rights worldwide as a fundamental US foreign policy interest. The Entity List remains a powerful tool in our arsenal to prevent bad actors around the world from using American technology to reach their nefarious goals.”
“We remain laser focused on stemming the proliferation of digital tools for repression,” said Bureau of Industry and Security Under Secretary Alan Estevez. “Considering the impact of surveillance tools and other technologies on international human rights, I am pleased to announce these additions to our Entity List.”
