Blacklisting Chinese research institutes

Just last week, the US Commerce Department blacklisted 12 Chinese institutes and firms for engaging in the development of this dangerous tech.

As opposed to traditional weapons that take on the enemy's bodies to cause physical harm, the next-gen mind control weapons by China would be used to "paralyze and control the opponent" by "attacking the enemy's will to resist."

After being blacklisted, American companies can no longer transfer goods to Chinese institutes without a licence.
