>Great news for the US. Great news for Apple, AMD, and Nvidia. Not so good news for Taiwan. The fact that the whole tech world is dependent on chips produced in Hsinchu is a huge advantage for the safety of Taiwan. Moving the fabs and talent further away from the island will not benefit the people of Taiwan at all.

Is it possible part of why China wants control of China is to control these factories, so if they move production to America paired with demanding existing diplomatic agreements be honored, China will be less obsessed with seizing, for lack of better phrasing, a unique resource?
