This article was very disappointing. The author writes like an American neo-con warhawk who fantasizes about the entire world and tech industry choosing US over China thus isolating and containing it.

China trying to move up the value chain so hard-working Chinese citizens aren't stuck working in sweatshops forever is treated as a mortal national security threat that the whole word must unite to stop. Luckily private American tech-firms and non-Anglo countries don't buy this BS and wants to establish a win-win relationship and don't want to pick sides.

The latest Huawei escalation has shown the entire tech industry that US supply chain can't be trusted. If I were TSMC I would be looking hard into how Japanese semiconductor equipment can substitute all American ones.
