The probe follows an earlier report highlighting concerns about Micron’s data handling practices and its products’ vulnerability to malicious hacking. This action signifies a growing trend of heightened scrutiny on US technology companies operating within China’s borders, reflecting broader anxieties over national security and intellectual property protection in the face of increased competition between superpowers.
