China takes on Intel
The People’s Republic of China is taking chipmaker Intel to the International Standards Organization (ISO) for imposing a near-monopoly on encryption standards for wireless local area network gear.
According to the Xinhua news agency, Beijing said that Intel had used unethical behaviour and wants the ISO to look into it.
China says that the American Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), broke ISO rules when its national bodies voted on new technology to mend security loopholes in the WLAN standard. It claims that the IEEE didn’t follow ethical and procedural rules and principles.
