    Nah. Chip fabrication as we know is phenomenally complicated, and not at all portable. Why do you think NATO is ready to fight WW3 over China threatening to invade Taiwan?

    Extraordinary claims like this require extraordinary proof, and Huawei won’t cough it up, so it’s fair if everyone thinks “propaganda”.

      Sure it is. But the fact remains that much of the required components to form an ecosystem are available on mainland China. Even TSMC building factories in Europe and the US can’t change the fact that the rest of the ecosystem is lacking at best.

      We need to get off our collective chairs and stop drinking the kool-aid for a while, in order to maintain a lead here.
