So if it were in the US, the story would read "Congressman X said Y on Z website", but because it's in big scary China, everything must be flattened into the undifferentiated hive-mind of "state media". I fucking hate that.

US citizens should be concerned, as well.

boss move would be to embargo the chips, i know they won't because china wants actually constructive trade relations and if they wanted to throw the toys out the pram they had multiple opportunities to do so for years now when it comes to dealing with the USA

15% of zero profits is zero.
