Love that America's 21st century cold war is fully predicated on the assumption that China does not have the ability to develop its own productive capacity.
Huawei is literally one of the cocreators of 5G
yeah, don't really understand the shock here
the whole policy really seems... stupid. Like, we've kinda hit a plateau with microchips and CPUs. Any smaller and you start getting quantum interference and the board becomes useless. So why is the stated strategy to prevent innovation on this front? What difference does it make? Either US leaders are fighting last century's battle and assuming this is perfectly analogous to the Soviet computer industry, or it's a distraction for something more covert.
But... I don't really know what the latter could be. I'm half convinced we're just not capable of that kind of thing anymore, that all the old heads have retired and all our clandestine institutions are staffed by their starry-eyed children. People with the right connections and none of the skills.
White people get to stay on top of the food chain for like two extra months. That's enough for these guys to justify it.
