Taiwan is reeling from a high-profile leak of advanced semiconductor technology belonging to TSMC — and the focus is not on China, but Japan, emblematic of the intensifying chip war as the top dogs race to 2-nanometer technology.
NO ONE SHOULD CARE unless you’re a semiconductor exec. Give me cheap Japanese knockoffs of TSMC chips, I’ll take them along with the cheap Chinese knockoffs. Corporate espionage is morally neutral to me and there are no “good” corporations to begin with, I don’t get why the consumers getting gouged by these corporations feel the need to defend them when other corporations steal their IP.
