FCC Targets DJI Front Company Jovistar
17 Oct
Summary
- FCC subcontractor TUV Rheinland failed to conduct basic Google searches.
- TUV Rheinland requested blocking of Jovistar, a DJI front company.
- The FCC has placed Jovistar on notice, blocking its applications.
In a recent operation, the FCC has successfully blocked applications from Jovistar, identified as a front company for DJI. This action followed a request from TUV Rheinland, an FCC subcontractor. Previously, it was reported that TUV Rheinland had not conducted basic due diligence, such as simple Google searches, before approving banned DJI technology for import and sale.
This new development signifies a more effective 'whack-a-drone' effort. Public records reveal that TUV Rheinland specifically asked the FCC to prevent Jovistar's applications from being approved. The FCC has now officially complied with this request, formally putting Jovistar on notice regarding its technology.
