TSMC is probing an alleged leak of 2nm process integration images to Japan's Rapidus, though the data's content, impact, and Rapidus's involvement remain uncertain.

Must be a slow news day. Someone shared something that may or may not help someone else. Egads!

What a "surprise"!!!

Another good way to apply excessive censorship. It was already the case, but we're adding another layer, since with this type of subscription, we remove anonymity. But in any case, this site is more of an advertising site than anything else now.

Like all the others, moreover, and belonging to the same groups of "business people."

What a wonderful uniformity, single-minded "thinking" (that of the rich) is.
China, Russia, North Korea, they're Satan. The United States of America is "paradise."

Even more money in the coffers, even more money in tax havens, and the same "news" as all the other sites belonging to the same trillionaire owners.

"History" proves it: those who own the technology, control everything, and hold the "truth," their own...

Bravo!

Never noticed that, yeah I am good without paid content, same reason I don't get much from Charlie at semi-accurate anymore.

I hope there is enough interest they can continue on, not too many sites left that are worth reading. It is odd to me that youtube space has somewhat taken over print media, perhaps Gamers Nexus can increase in content and give me a reason to frequent his web site.

I was always wondering how Rapidus was going to achieve a successful (>60% yields) 2nm so quickly.
If true, I guess stolen IP would back that up.

But it's also very weird to me because Japan is obnoxiously strict when it comes to IP after a series of industrial/corporate espionage by S.Korea, or the famous Wagyuu DNA stolen by USA. You'd think the government funded and run Rapidus would shy away from a potential trade disputes, but, if true, clearly not.

Japan is the original tech theft, over capacity producing country before China. The amount of technology theft Japan took from American and German companies is honestly staggering. Also, Rapidus is a government project that Japan is quite desperate for it to work so I'm not surprised Japan is resorting to stealing once again. Although, I'm not quite sure it will work out considering how Japan's other government projects failed quite miserably, famously in the display industry.
