There have also been rumors that a Cymer EUV source was intercepted during transit and reverse-engineered in a covert Chinese lab. But even if individual components were acquired, Tom's Hardware notes that such efforts are unlikely to produce a working system. Without the integrated software and supplier collaboration that make EUV viable, the hardware alone is effectively inert.
"China will never achieve domestic lithography!"
->
"China will never make a domestic 90nm node!"
->
"China will never achieve 20nm nodes via DUV!"
->
"China will never achieve 7nm nor EUV!"
->
"China will never get their EUV prototype working!"
Article seems like cope.
Lmao, OP, I am once again asking you to drop evidence of a Uyghur grnocide that does not immediately recycle Radio Free Asia or Adrien Zenz talking points.
If you actually read this "new" report, youll find there is very little new content - aside from whatever new pieces RFA has put out this year.
At this point, you can look at the sources for this "new" article and notice it leans HEAVILY on another report from Rian Thum
Eight Years On, China’s Repression of the Uyghurs Remains Dire: How China’s Policies in the Uyghur Region Have and Have Not Changed,”
And what happens if we look at this reports references?
Just more circular references to Zenz.
(This one is especially funny, because in the intro, they talk all high and mighty about how their ONLY sources are primary Chinese documents from the state, or leaks from the state. And in the footnote, they basically say "yeah we cant read this, so see what our buddy Zenz had to say about it" despite the fact that that Zenz doesnt speak Chinese. The same Zenz who says Hitler had good ideas on population control, by the way)
This OP is draped in congressional language, and its got the length to boot... But this is not a new report. This is not even an investigation. This is essentially the US government dropping a summary of all of their new RFA pieces that have dropped this year. I encourage anyone lookin at these reports to be critical of RFA and Zenz. Having an ounce of skepticism will immediately reveal that the vast majority of the times, these China hit pieces on Uyghurs are just circular references of Zenz and RFA.
