That's a lot of stipulations. I wonder how strict they are on proving that you did all 9 steps and substeps for 46 weeks, like I'm not even sure how I would prove a lot of those things (linkedin, phone calls, texts) happened excep

The message said they're from Chicago and there's a META LLC registered to him in Illinois since September 2013. Not sure what they do, but at minimum it seems like they've been using the name for some time.

Taiwan didn't lockdown their factories. Their border is highly restricted for entry but they haven't really gone beyond closing indoor dining and karaoke. In Q3 2021, TSMC shipped 12.5% more wafers year over year and +5.7% quarter

I personally think it depends on if the sales data is from FBA or sold by Amazon. If it's sold by Amazon data that should be fair game for Amazon to do whatever it wants. I'm a little uncomfortable with them using FBA data (market

In your second link there's Power @ iso-speed comparisons within TSMC's nodes and TSMC has 3 revisions of their N7 with 3 different power usages. Presumably, Intel can do similar things within their generations too.
