Right?! And it’s not like the Chinese side is even trying. Zero ability to consider second and third order effects in Washington.

And this “deterrence” strategy goes far beyond just the Trump administration. It has been a whole of government exercise. Both sides of the aisle.

Is there a lot of government control on labs there or are they very relaxed on regulation? It's hard to find commentary on china's innovation that doesnt seem slanted. Hard to really get a good picture
