Between this, the tarrifs and the brain drain, why would any manufacturers consider operating in the US anymore?

They'll still want access to Americans coz there are profits to be had, and they can price gouge under a fascist kleptocracy many orders of magnitude harder than elsewhere.

What they don't understand is that the fascist leadership will backstab many/most of them eventually, especially if they possess any moral fiber whatsoever. Luckily for them, capitalism has already purged corporate leadership of morality and ethics.

There's no real push for that to happen. This is about crashing an economy, stealing wealth and creating a a massive almost slave labor class at the bottom.

Ah yes let's try to stifle Chinese innovation by ... checks notes ... expanding our surveillance state. Usually we are the ones calling China a surveillance state, but it's fine(it's not) once we do it.

There is nothing more American than hipocracy my friend

[–] malin@thelemmy.club 27 points 1 day ago

Yeah. All the FUD about Huawei really solidified in my mind how stupid the average internet user is these days.

It's like, everything they were bitching about has already been confirmed to be happening with US companies thanks to PRISM and the Snowden leaks.

This is absolutely insane and no one will want to buy those GPUs.

[–] Yttra@lemmy.world 39 points 1 day ago

Unless, of course, they're in all the GPUs that people want.

...It's unfortunately more likely that the majority of people won't notice or care, though.

[–] Blueberrydreamer@lemmynsfw.com 21 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Yeah if you think most people are going to care or even know about this, you haven't been paying attention to the last 20 years.

Oh Senator Know-Nothing....

What are you going to do about firewalls and air-gapped networks? JFK you stupid asshole... GTFO

[–] d00ery@lemmy.world 58 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Next up GPUs require always-on connections and Nvidia requires a monthly subscription to pay for that.

[–] schema@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

For just $19.99 a month you can have us track your GPU*, or choose the premium ad-free upgrade for just $149.99 a months, so you can enjoy your favorite games without ad breakes.

Adversaries who are being treated to lower tarriffs than allies.

Cooked country.

[–] Zwuzelmaus@feddit.org 45 points 1 day ago

Why would they make their own products illegal in Europe?

[–] thorhop@sopuli.xyz 41 points 1 day ago (24 children)

...okay, so invest in Chinese GPU companies? Invest in Chinese GPU companies.

Fascists are weird little guys. There is a podcast about that, it's true.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

why dont they just ask huwei to give them some spying tech.

[–] matmarspace@programming.dev 11 points 1 day ago

Bruh... Literally 1984

[–] LostXOR@fedia.io 17 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I can't imagine this would be effective at all. Assuming it uses GPS, big datacenters could simply spoof the GPS signal, and consumers could block the GPU from receiving the signal (a fully metal PC case is almost a Faraday cage already).
