An obvious losing step. At first it will be more difficult for them, but the difficulties make them stronger, this will only force them to speed up their own development, and when they succeed, they will not need your trinkets.

    [deleted post]It's more like a win for capitalism. They're just banning China from making chip so they continue buying from them.

      Anyone who thinks this is a good thing is pushing far-right policies. It's nice to point at others and shout "agagag intellectual property theft" when they're not on your side in the geopolitical game.

        R.I.P. Chinese companies.

        Starting with the downfall of Huawei, followed by the collapsing marketshare of chinese phones, and now this.

        Chinese companies need 100 years to recover or to catch Samsung/Apple level.

          i don't know for how long the west will be able to prevent china from becoming an independent semiconductor manufacturer. many companies backed by huawei are already making progress in this matter.

            even US or western world know already China products is the best on earth and cheap.

              Necessity is the mother of invention. They will hit back and then you will ask for mercy.
