Four states sue TP-Link over alleged misrepresentations of its China ties

Gizmodo reports that Iowa, Florida, Montana and Nebraska sued TP-Link, alleging it misleads customers about its ties to China and the safety of its routers. TP-Link called the lawsuits' premises false and said it is not controlled by a foreign government. The company has not obtained an exemption from a broader FCC router sales ban, though TP-Link routers made before the ban can still be sold in the US.
