china produces way more patents than india which controls micron
then there is TSMC
YMTC is trash. They were sued multiple times by US companies for stealing or copying other semiconductor companies' patents. They are a Chinese Spy company.

"
Reuters says Micron was embroiled in a dispute in 2018 involving Chinese state-backed chipmaker Fujian Jinhua, accused of trade secret theft. Later that year, its main products were subject to a temporary sales ban in China.
China was once Micron's biggest market, generating half its $20 billion revenue in fiscal 2017. That share shrank to 16% in 2022, a year in which it closed DRAM operations in Shanghai.

One thing we know now is that Micron will not be selling too much in China anymore.
It has turned into some sort of Kmart.
Chinese chipmakers are in the world's leading position in terms of the level of layers of chips, Ma noted. "The lawsuit showed that YMTC's intellectual property rights are more advanced than those of Micron, proving that the Chinese firm has sufficient backing in protecting its rights, and it is a wake-up call to other related enterprises in the US."
bleep, it is kind of sad when china sues you for stealing patents
i wonder who is seating on the board of micron
