Re: Isn't this going to make the chip shortage worse?
The export ban is for tech used in _making_ chips, so the idea is to make the chip shortage worse worldwide.
At least in the short term.
Long term, it seems to be stimulating innovation in the east. Russia can now source chips in China they previously could only get from the US.
Not sure that an information ban is realistic in this day and age. Better to try to make things cheaper than the competitors if you want to control supply.
