DJI's Chinese drones would be spying on key points in the United States according to National Security

Scandal in the United States, after the Department of Homeland Security, in a report, says that Chinese DJI drones are spying on infrastructure and key points in the country.

China, the Asian giant, is always at the center of the controversy over the espionage of products that arrive from the Asian giant. The latest case has been uncovered by the United States Department of Homeland Security, which has said that the popular drone manufacturer Da-Jiang Innovations, better known as DJI, makes use of these devices to obtain information from the United States country and send them to the Asian giant, apparently, according to the security department, to carry out possible physical or computer attacks.

Is in a document in english, of the Customs department of Los Angeles, California, where these data are given. The document was drawn up this summer and it details that the government of the Asian giant would have been trying to obtain information on weapons depots, railways, bridges and other infrastructures spread throughout the country and, what's more, they would have succeeded and would have reports very detailed on strategic points. In parallel, users who have one of these drones, would have suffered the theft of personal data, such as location through GPS positioning, names, emails and in some cases, biometric information, thanks to some applications implemented in these devices to control of devices, such as DJI Go or Sky Pixels.

Logically, this attack represents a significant discredit for the company and has quickly come out to flatly deny the accusations made, also adding that users are free to share flight data and that the Internet connection can be completely disabled during the flight. The US government at the moment has not said what measures it will take in this regard, but they will not be light taking into account who the president of the country is. It should be noted that about 70% of the drones used in Canada and the United States belong to the Asian brand DJI.
