I really think every package repository should be opt in and every publisher should be required to verify their identity and along with checksum verification for the downloaded files.

I mean programming language package managers are just begging to be used as an attack vector. This is why package management should be an OS responsibility across the board and only trusted package sources and publishers should ever be allowed.

Intel is the only US based and owned foundry that is on the leading edge of fab process technology. That's what the government wants domestically. Defense isn't just military and certain intelligence and similar functions need high performance hardware. I somehow don't think the NSA is using CPUs made on Northrop Grumman's 180 nm planar CMOS process. Army radios might use that shit but the highest tech defense and intelligence agencies are using modern hardware. Intel is the best option for manufacturing it.

TSMC could be an option now with its US based GIGAFABs but it would be a much more complex deal with the US government where chips made for it would have to be made entirely in the US and possibly by a US domiciled subsidiary instead of TSMC's main Taiwan based parent company. The same goes for Samsung.

Intel is too big to fail. And the defense sector needs an advanced domestic foundry. Uncle Sam will bail it out with our tax money.
