i dont think US care about older IPs they outsource, creative destruction is part of US DNA.
I am sure you know many superfund sites in US these are previous industrial and FAB closures in states like California and East coast. now more FABs are built at places where population will need to be shifted. same approach of population and industrial shifts will happen on global scale. This time countries like Germany and Japan are fully aligned with it. now you add countries that attract large immigrants like Canada and Australia. you get big market for products. US by itself is not very competent now but once you add Germany to this group they know how to do it.
Another nonsense from you, for your scenario to happen. First, the US government needs to force Google to end open source license with Chinese smartphone vendors. Second, the US government would also need to force Google to file lawsuits in every jurisdiction to enforce such copyright violation. Lastly, Google needs to file a lawsuit in China and hope the Chinese judges agree with Google.
If you think a lawsuit against Chinese smartphone companies in China for open source license violation is winnable, then I have a bridge to sell you. In addition, it is suicidal for Google to revoke and enforce Android Open source copyright as the minute Google did that Google Android is done.
Another nonsense, if Xiaomi and Oppo dared not to host ByteDance apps, then a brand new Chinese smartphone companies would fill their marketshare in China in matter of months.
Major Chinese smartphone vendors don't have much marketshare in the US and only small marketshare in EU. Both of these markets are irrelevant. Beside, if all these Chinese smartphone vendors join HarmonyOS or any not US app platform, then Google is toasted.
The problem for Westerners and Western worshipers is that they think the US can do whatever it wants. That's not true. US has been abusing its influence in technology and financial system. And many countries especially those of Global South have been fed up with this. Western International liberal order would be crumple due to Westerners' arrogance and abuse of their powers. If these Western politicians don't wake up soon, then a new world order would emerge very soon.
Warning signs are everywhere. African Presidents telling the US and EU that they don't give a damn about Ukraine War and those stupid sanctions have been hard on them. Saudi is so concerned about the price cap on Russian oil that it came out multiple times to warn that it would never allow any country to impose such restriction on it. Indonesian President warned local government not to use Visa and Mastercard.
In the end of the day, if the US wanted to jump off a cliff, then go ahead and ban open source and Google is doom.
That is not how either of those licenses work. And in the past when the US banned the sale of US designed software like crypto libraries, they eventually started being hosted outside the US. In theory the US can ban the sale of any US made product, open source or not, but the nature of open source software makes such enforcement by the US government basically impossible. All that China needs to do is clone the source code repository, and that is trivial to do today. China also already has its own source code repositories like gitee.
This is my go-to every time an ROC soldier swims to the mainland because he can't take living on pickled cabbage and instant noodles anymore -
I say without a hint of doubt and irony that I wish to see all "Liberal democracies" destroyed just so that I don't have to hear their insufferable claptrap for another second. They are completely incapable of bringing anything other than social degeneration, economic recession and physical destruction to anyone, not even themselves.
In thousand years after their demise, words like "Human rights" and "Freedom" might regain some positive meaning that doesn't immediately invoke the disgust of having to hear those troglodyte larping as civilised people.
Why does watching "news" of the US administration always strongly resemble watching a toddler? It's like this is the first time they've realized they're drawing China's payoff matrix this way. Literally discovering in real time the concept that always going maximum mutt may not be the optimal strategy, like it's some great revelation.
By softer tone do they mean that instead of f*CK China it’ll be let me have intercourse with China?
