It appears that the technological standoff between China and the US is escalating with new developments emerging almost daily. This follows the recent request from the US government for ASML to cease servicing the systems it sold to China, and the subsequent prohibition of Intel and AMD chips—and Microsoft Windows—in government computers. In response, the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has directed state-owned telecommunications companies to replace foreign chips with domestically produced ones by 2027.

The need to safeguard communications and maintain security—despite the political rhetoric—is unlikely to diminish anytime soon. This suggests that the reciprocal tech war will persist. The question remains: what’s next on the ban lists for the US or China?

Thank you for watching!
