I don't have enough knowledge of chip's logistics so my less informed 2 cents would be, thinking from a business perspective, if eventual dominance of chip supply-chain was in cards, Chinese businesses would have had done it regardless of ban existed or not.
So, this ban gives Taiwan and US businesses some breathing space to keep that lead. How its leveraged, is upto the governments and business's .
- mytailorisrich 6y agoThis ban does not help Taiwanese businesses. Quite the opposite.
- londons_explore 6y agoI'm sure they were given a decent financial incentive to go along with this ban. Taiwan is an ally after all, if you annoy their companies with far overreaching targeted international rules, and don't compensate them, there are going to be political costs. I would guess the new TSMC facility in the US is part of this compensation - they'll probably be receiving very favourable tax treatment for everything manufactured there.
- coreblocks 6y agoWell the reason TSMC gave up Huawei so easily was because they knew they would have no trouble filling orders from AMD, NVIDIA, Xilinx and now Intel apparently.
