That's laughable, China will spend 15-30 expanding on all kinds of technologies while cut from the US by design. I cannot see any long term benefit for the US when it lost access to the largest foreign market and suffers from fierce competition across the world. See the debacle of EV, where Chinese companies are already dominating sales on 3rd world countries and inside China.
- ineedaj0b 2y agoif China invades Taiwan (Xi explicitly says he plans too) I don't think anyone will want to buy from China. the US chip sanctions are viewed happily by the entire industry - except China. This means other countries have a chance to further displace China in the sector. Not agreeing with a certain sanction is fine but my point stands: they are meant to hobble countries long term.
- coliveira 2y agoThe only country that is hobbled by these sanctions is the US. China will not invade Taiwan because they don't need it, and even if they do nobody will stop buying from them for this reason, since Taiwan is considered to be part of the China by most of the world (even formally by the US). It is funny that the US continues to deceive itself on this issue.
- Nevermark 2y agoUS access to Taiwanese chip makers isn’t hobbled. Taiwan doesn’t consider itself part of China. So the US view is in line with the practical facts on the ground. And China wouldn’t need to saber rattle if they had credible “alternate” facts or didn’t feel they were the ones “hobbled”.
