I don't know what makes you think the US is controlling the chip sector, because it ain't us. Almost all of the world's general use chips are made in fabs in Asia. Why do you think the rest of the world is trying stop an invasion of Taiwan by China? The US is trying to bring BACK fabs ASAP because of that risk.

Also, if you weren't aware, nothing is stopping any other country from creating their own chip designs and having them fabricated.

No they didn't lol. That's a Chinese company with backdoors and exploits all over their hardware that cant be SOLD in the US. They can fab their chips wherever they want, but they can't sell their product in the US.

Ironic. Something something Snowden, something something mass surveillance, something something forcing backdoors on companies.
