If it's Warmerican and well known, then it's full of Warmerican propaganda. Maybe try a Russian or Chinese game.

Maybe some info got leaked, it got attention in Asia, and then the USA had to say something. But even if this was the case, it would still be strange that they admited it.

I believe the USA has "astroturfing squads" for this kind of work. This is one more evidence of it. Social media is likely flooded with astroturfing activity from the USA government. They also likely manipulate the social media software to help in this. For example, YouTube has a comment filter that automatically deletes comments that contain certain words; because of this filter, if you say certain things, the comment gets deleted, and you don't know it unless you look for the comment. Most comments I make on YouTube about geopolitics get deleted. A way to get the comment delivered is to hide likely banned words or expressions by inserting a space in the middle of the word. For example, the comment "China wages developement. America wages wars." will likely get deleted. To deliver it, you could write "Chi na wa ges developement. Ame rica wa ges wa rs.".

Perplexity summary: The article from Bloomberg[1] reports that Huawei's latest smartphone, the Mate 60 Pro, is powered by a new Kirin 9000s chip that was fabricated in China by Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp (SMIC). This chip is the first to utilize SMIC's most advanced 7nm technology, which suggests that the Chinese government is making some headway in attempts to build a domestic chip ecosystem. The article also notes that Huawei is reportedly developing its own Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and power management chips. Other sources, such as Swarajya[2], ThinkChina[3], TechHQ[4], and The Verge[5], speculate on how Huawei was able to develop its own chips despite US sanctions. Some sources suggest that Huawei may have used its inventory from 2020, while others speculate that the chips were manufactured by SMIC or even Huawei itself. Chinese benchmarking website AnTuTu has identified the Mate 60 Pro's CPU as the HiSilicon-designed Kirin 9000s, which supports 5G[6]. Overall, the article and other sources suggest that Huawei's use of domestically produced chips in the Mate 60 Pro is a significant development in China's efforts to build a domestic chip ecosystem and circumvent US sanctions.

That's in part because of all the anti-China propaganda on big media and youtube. In youtube, anti-China content, specially content from big media (BBC, sky news and the likes) and CIA-backed content, is recommended to much more users than pro-China content. Just look at the number of views of anti-China videos vs neutral or pro-China channels. Anti-China videos easily get millons of views, while the best of the best pro-China videos only reach tens or hundreads of thousands of views (one or another may reach millions by using a super catch thumbnail and title). The pro-China videos are mostly recommended to people that already watches pro-China videos, while anti-China videos get recommended for everyone on youtube. The result is that a huge amount of youtube users believe anti-China crap.

It's so toxic how they always talk about efforts to keep America the best this or the best that. They talk as if for them the priority is to do everything (even moraly wrong things) to make America be the best at everything, being human progress only a byproduct of this competition. They also talk as if America be the best at everything is necessary for the world to be "right"; as if this is something inherently good.
