China Tells Telecom Carriers to Phase Out Foreign Chips in Blow to Intel, AMD

The US is doing it to them so why not actually in response?

Apparently China also finally brought in that controversial video game law too (this is from a friend in Hong Kong)

Message from friend on FluffyChat: china banned kids from playing games on weekdays; on weekends, they can only play up to 3 hours; I think it's just online games

China also has U18 SIMs and it’s illegal not to use one if you are U18 apparently, I think they block certain sites at certain times or something?
10 years ago I would have been outraged, but now (being a parent and seeing the internet turning into complete scheisse) it seems actually sensible.

It does seem one of the more sensible ways of implementing something like this

It’s not that crazy because you already had to provide ID to get a SIM in China, but if we wanted to implement something like U18 SIMs here in a similar way, it would be a bit of a change and might be the final nail in the coffin for the likes of Lyca
 
Big Brother has brought it upon themselves, being to arrogant and cocky about their prowess. Shot themselves in the foot.

Now that China has the capacity AND the clout (and marketshare), they can afford to give it back to Unlce Sam.

Let the fun begin, we might get even cheaper handsets.
