  "textContent": "\\WASHINGTON, Feb. 25, 2026 – Chinese technology company DJI sued the Federal Communications Commission on Friday for banning and blacklisting its products.\n\nIn the petition filed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, DJI argued that a FCC December ruling was unlawful on multiple grounds, including failure to follow required administrative procedures, exceeding its statutory authority by going beyond what Congress authorized and violating the Fifth Amendment by depriving DJI of due process.\n\nDJI’s petition asked the Ninth Circuit to rule that the FCC’s decision blacklisting its drones was unlawful and to vacate or halt enforcement of the order. This Feb. 20 petition came after an initial January motion for reconsideration with the FCC, where DJI claimed severe damage to the company’s reputation and market access.\n\n### This post is for subscribers only\n\nBecome a member to get access to all content\n\nSubscribe now",
