Political pandering? Or not giving tech to an arm of the CCP known to be accessing networks it helped build for mobile network?

These are consumer-grade mobile and laptop chips. That are going into products that won't get sold in the US anyway. Oh, and other Chinese companies, that do sale their products in the US, like Lenovo or Oppo, can get these same chips no problem.

So all this is doing is harming Intel and Qualcomm, while incentivizing Huawei to invest even more in domestic chips.

Tech? You mean a CPU you can buy in any supermarket?
Huawei is a private company, and there's no known case of it spying on mobile networks.
