The Federal Communications Commission voted unanimously Friday to ban telecommunications companies from using FCC funds to buy equipment from Chinese manufacturers Huawei and ZTE. The move comes as telecom firms are ramping up their efforts to build 5G networks. The FCC issued a notice of proposed rulemaking calling for requiring telecom companies that receive money from the Universal Service Fund to remove and replace gear from the two companies. Huawei said it was based on “innuendo, and mistaken assumptions, according to The Register.”]
