ZTE in the News: ZTE was in the news a lot in 2018 thanks to the sanctions the company was negotiating with the US government. At one point, it seemed as if ZTE would be forced out of business.

In mid-July 2018 it looked like the dust had settled and ZTE would be able to continue releasing new products and supporting older devices, so we dropped our previous warning.

In late 2018, the Trump administration again considered a ban on ZTE and Huawei via Executive Order.

In July 2020, the U.S. government banned companies that use ZTE from receiving federal contracts.
