Klage: TP-Link wirft Netgear Verleumdungskampagne zu Verbindung nach China vor
TP-Link wurde in China gegründet und wegen der Verbindungen in die Volksrepublik steht der Konzern in den USA unter Beobachtung. Daran soll Netgear schuld sein.

All those allegations that China is using TP-Link routers to spy or to lay the groundworks for attacks or whatever have cost the California-based but Chinese-owned company $1 billion, according to a lawsuit filed by TP-Link against Netgear.
Fwiw, the allegations began in Washington and were wholly unfounded, but that hasn't slowed the drumbeat to ban TP-Link.

No evidence that TP-Link routers are a Chinese security threat
Despite a request for a US government investigation into Chinese-made TP-Link, evidence presented by a US House committee fails to support allegations they are a national security risk, experts say.
