    It’s a clumsy attempt to strongarm tech companies into setting up factories in the USA

    Evidently not since Netgear has zero factories in the USA and plans to bring zero factories to the USA in the future.

    It may also be an attempt to create an environment in which it’s easier to install US government backdoors on every home router.

    It’s this one.
