Blocking CCP Spy Tech Act of 2026

This bill requires a federal national security agency to decide, within one year, whether communications equipment and services made or provided by six named companies pose an unacceptable risk to U.S. national security or the safety of U.S. persons. The named companies include DeepSeek, Unitree Robotics, DEEP Robotics, Game Science Interactive, BrainCo, and Manycore Tech, along with their subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, joint ventures, and licensees. If the agency finds a risk, or makes no decision by the deadline, the Federal Communications Commission must add the equipment and services to its covered list within 30 days. If the agency finds no risk, it must report to Congress, and other national security agencies must review that finding within 180 days. The bill also directs the Secretary of Defense to decide whether these companies should be identified as Chinese military companies operating in the United States.
