Maryland police are using drones from a Chinese company that were banned in four states

a report concluding the Chinese government's abuses against Uyghurs could constitute crimes against humanity.

US officials have also raised concerns about data privacy, with four states and several US agencies banning the use of DJI drones, WBAL TV reported. Earlier this year,Adam Welsh — the head of global policy for DJI — told WBAL TV the company had never given US data to the Chinese government. Furthermore, officials with Maryland state police say they have not found another supplier that lives up to the quality of DJI drones.

"There are drones that are made here in the United States, but they do not come up, in our opinion, to the level that the DJI drones that we are using come to," Senior Deputy Michael Wilsinski told WBAL TV.Subscribe to push notifications
