Poland bans camera-packing cars made in China from military bases

Poland’s Ministry of Defence has prohibited Chinese-made cars — and any vehicles containing technology that can record location, images, or audio — from entering protected military facilities citing risks of uncontrolled data collection; the ban includes restrictions on connecting work phones to car infotainment systems, is temporary pending a vetting/security assessment process for carmakers, allows limited exemptions for inspections and rescues, and is framed as consistent with NATO practices while noting enforcement challenges (e.g., European cars built in China).
