          Well, here's to hoping the first batch of American TSMC chips isn't Exynosesque.

China is the best example of what happens when USA decide to limit a country's chip industry.

                  Why is every company going to TSMC for chips? Is there no other company that can make them?

                    Looks like Apple has taken the first steps towards 'Made in America' iPhones. It's going to be a long shot but they're well into this US-China trade war. That's not to guess what challenges a 'Made in America' iPhone would pose for Asian countries.

All of the "china bad" wackos who said TSMC fabs in Asia would be targets for Chinese spying should now realize all their hypothetical fears that never materialized will 100% actually happen under the US. PRC fear mongering is chump change compared to NSA real-life examples and history of global espionage.
