While US government institution are now not allowed to purchase Dahua or Hikvision cameras over (ostensibly) national security concerns, I don't think there should be any reason why ordinary consumers should avoid these cameras. They are generally great value, work well with SecuritySpy, and are easily available worldwide.
One concern about these cameras is that they tend to make frequent outgoing connections over the Internet to Chinese servers, sending unknown data. There could be legitimate reasons for this (e.g. diagnostic data to improve future products) but the worry is that other data is being sent that some may consider a breach of privacy, and all this is done without explicit permission from the user.
Outgoing connections aren't blocked by firewalls by default - only incoming connections. If you are worried about any of this, the best solution is to segregate the cameras on a separate local network, which completely cuts them off from all Internet connectivity.
As an individual, I wouldn't be too worried, especially as I can take steps to prevent these connections with minimal effort. But I can understand why the US government has taken the decision to ban them.
