It’s gonna suck so hard for the whole world when they get invaded :(
Pray they don't, but I'm almost certain they will now that the US is appointing complete morons to every portion of the US government.

But the Arizona plant wouldn't be allowed to manufacture the most cutting edge chips.
How/why is that blocked?
Would it still be if China invades Taiwan?
Taiwan is incentivized to keep the latest and greatest local, so they can hopefully get protection from the USA and Europe
Even some of Intel's Arrow Lake/Lunar Lake chips are being fabbed at TSMC.
