    Surely TSMC is equally prepared to destroy the fabs in AZ as they are the ones in China. Not sure how successful they could be, but my understanding was they’ve built kill-switches or whatever. It would seem dumb not to, at this point.

    Also, I don’t believe you can make a fab work by just stealing it. It’s not like it’s a toaster. lol

      No, but it is hard to justify destroying fab in AZ because Taiwan was invaded. And if fab in AZ keeps working, US is fine even if Taiwan is occupied. Hence removing a reason to support Taiwan.
