    This reads like fake news. No publication date, no sources listed, very vague and self-contradictory on the details. How is no other news outlet corroborating this?

    I’d take this one with a huge grain of salt.

    That’s going to make things very difficult for them short-term. Medium-term too. Bets are still off on long-term.

    I mean… They’re not exactly wrong for this, especially with Intel.

    This must mean that they’re getting cheaper in the West now, right? Right?!

    I can’t read the article for it opens some 1x1 gif at loading, but I suspect they’d only need to write a long form proof of why they need to use exactly that foreign brand for their work etc, and probably if they also have the leverage to do so (so many get filtered out, maybe). That’s how it works in Russia for plenty of years after we proclaimed we’d replace imported goods with something we don’t even produce lol.

      Precisely. They’ve finally stolen enough IP to make replicas of these banned chips and keep all the profits.

    Bro the trade wars are already poping off. Problem is China has already snapped up the whole global souths market. (minus Australia and New Zealand.) the US and the west don’t have enough industry to compete. My god the economic collapse is going to reshape the west. Hopefully what happens after is a far left economic and political system because the far right plan will be to turn the trade war into an actual war to reclaim profits.

    China is willing to let millions of it’s own people die to achieve its goals. The west doesn’t have enough blind dogmatic people in their militaries and governments to suppress civil unrest. We saw this in South Korea recently. The military just didn’t have the will to fire on their friends and families. So they just meekly followed orders until it was clear the conservative party wasn’t going to be able to maintain power. Hell half of South Korea slept through an attempted dictatorship and the ruling party still couldn’t hold power.
