Comment on TSMC employees reportedly stole 2nm trade secrets to share with Rapidus — accused are said to have shared 'hundreds of process integration technical photos'

  They dont even know what info and what was shared.

  "Keep in mind that the reports about employees stealing TSMC’s 2nm-related trade secrets are vague (to put it mildly), and should be taken with grain of salt. While the initial reports said that up to six people were involved in the wrongdoing, the new report claims that there were ‘around’ 10 perpetrators. Also, the initial reports failed to detail what information was stolen from TSMC, and the new report mentions ‘hundreds of process integration technical photos,’ but does not disclose what was on those images.

    WE don’t know what info and otherwise was shared, because it’s an ongoing investigation and they’d be idiots to be telling the public everything. That doesn’t make it a ‘rumour’. There’s enough to it that the govt is investigating, which is by definition more than a rumour.
