Original Story:The US ban on foreign-made tech is expanding from drones and Wi-Fi routers to humanoid robots and power inverters.

The ban comes from the White House, which determined on Monday that both foreign-made power inverters and advanced robots pose a national security risk to the US.

The ban on advanced robots deals a crippling blow to Chinese robots, which have gained popularity, particularly on social media.
