    This is the innovation equivalent of the Streisand effect. If you try and withhold technology, you will only give them a motive to develop it themselves and surpass you.

    We saw this with the USSR, we’re seeing this with China’s chips and Cuba’s vaccine. And it’s frankly beautiful.

      Not exactly a good thing in this case. Also probably BS or maybe someone is getting abused in the process or maybe it works for a few days. But yeah, if China gets better than EUV technology, then we’re screwed. We’ll have drones running behind us trying to end us…AI controlled.

        Maybe this mask off anti-Chinese racism is partly why they’re trying to develop their own tech?
