Warning: Panasonic i-PRO Deceives About NDAA Compliance
IPVM has determined that Panasonic i-PRO has deceived about its NDAA compliance. In fact, the company has products that use Huawei Hisilicon chips, IPVM has verified, while the company deceived about this.
The company has refused to share a list of Panasonic products that continue to use Huawei Hisilicon chips. We urge Panasonic users subject to the NDAA to carefully consider what to do.
