Amazon reportedly paid nearly $10 million to a blacklisted Chinese company for thermal imaging cameras to monitor employee temperatures

Amazon reportedly spent nearly $10 million on the cameras, and 500 of the 1,500 purchased are said to be intended for use in the United States.

In an email exchange with Business Insider, Amazon spokesperson Rena Lunak confirmed that Amazon is implementing "the use of thermal imagers from multiple manufacturers for temperature screening to create a more streamlined experience for our employees." She also pointed out that, "None of this equipment has network connectivity, and no personal identifiable information will be visible, collected, or stored.

Though commerce with these companies is legal, the US government warns that "transactions of any nature with listed entities carry a 'red flag' and recommends that US companies proceed with caution."
