I never understand why everyone is so surprised by this
Corporations do billions of dollars worth of trade with China because the Chinese can really bend or ignore the rules of worker safety and use cheap labor either in their country or somewhere else. Then the Chinese skim off the tech, knowledge and information to make cheap copies for even lower costs for themselves and cut out the original to make more money for themselves. They did it with every dollar store product ever produced, with cars, motorcycles, anything with an engine and now they're doing it with CPUs
Nice rant.
You should try reading the article. These aren't cheap copies they are talking about.
Thanks for calling me out ... I have a bad habit of commenting on headlines ... read the article and you are right ... the story is about actually produced CPUs being illegally shared and sold be reviewers before public sale
But my point still stands about us dealing with China ... it always amazes me, western countries keep complaining about China, the things China does, how China cheats, how China breaks rules and how illegal China is ... yet we still do billions of dollars worth of trade with them and base a large chunk of our economy on them. We literally provoke military conflict with them, yet they are our biggest trading partner.
Your point wasn't wrong. It simply wasn't what the article was about.
The copy is cheap because it doesn't include intels profits.
Sounds like you didn't read the article either.
