    Damn, I wonder if China’s thought of that? Like infiltrators and advance specops to secure high value infrastructure? Probably not.

      Probably yes. All the assassin shit is something the West is not as ahead of the rest of the world as people seem to expect from the difference in technological development.

      That aside, they do have some production of their own. EDIT: Good for military and good for usable PCs for China not to stop breathing without TSMC-made hardware.
