A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This is a direct consequence of the so-called 'multipolar world' imo, and the aggression demonstrated by dictatorships like China and Russia. Not that I think this is good, it's a bad development, though other areas and countries do and will increasingly to the same in the future. I guess the democratic world -or the rest of it- has no choice other than that.

It may be a modern version of the multilateral export controls we already had during the Cold War in the 20th century.
