Bosic012, 19 Oct 2024Aren't politics great?There's good politics and there's bad. US politics has been leaning towards the bad for a long time now. They just can't blame China all the time for their bad politics.

    Aren't politics great?

      I don't understand USA's obsession with Huawei.
      USA is being such a crybaby.

          Maybe prosecute companies from countries that support the genocide on Palestinian children too? Oh right, the US is one of those.

            China has a shady and greedy government. Their own tech company like Huawei is the one being affected. Just my two cents.

                As per my previous post - the picture doesn't show a Hisilicon chip, TSMC or not. It shows 2 SK Hynix memory chips. Is this meant to be a generic illustration then ?

                          Erictys , 18 Oct 2024Tsmc unite with China, end of western chips 🤣funny joke. With what? They actually build with western intelligence and tech, if they get banned they are not allowed to use the tech, meaning in 2.5 seconds they are gone from market. Yet the westen companies are allowed to use the tech, because they INVENTED it... fun facts, right?

                              DarlingYext, 18 Oct 2024Just let Huawei come back, and let's see what happens!What do you expect to happen? Till date they never had one innovation of their own, not one device that had something others did not. They sold based of unfair compatition, for you meaning: because cheap people bought. Pretty much like any other chinese brand.

Because companies got greedy and outsourced their intel in china does not mean that now China can do whatever it whants and step on western countries economy using western technology. I am actually glad that somebody finaly does something about the situation and forces companies to return in their mainlands. Even tough for a lot of great european companies is a little too late. If you do not understand the situation, stop talking... at least like that will make you sound remotly knowledgeable.

I am not talking about them closing deals with small USA businesses that made no sense when just looking at the deals, because Huahwawy close them with quite big chunks of loses, well if you ignore the fact that they were made with companies that deployed networks very close to usa army bases... i am talking only about smartphone department for the moment.
