A letter has been sent from Congress to the Department of Defense claiming China’s subsidizing of display producers is a security risk to the US, with an endgame that could result in forcing Apple to change its supply sources.

Apple’s global supply chain relies on multiple companies to provide displays for its iPhones, iPads, and Macs. However, while Chinese producer BOE has had a troubled existence within the supply chain, its status may become a little tougher to maintain.
John Moolenaar (R-MI), chairman of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party, has written to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin about China’s subsidization of display producers. The letter, released on Tuesday, takes specific aim at BOE Technology Group and Tianma Microelectronics, and the possibility they could become a national security threat.
