Developing world needs an alternative to Chinese tech::In April 2022, the United States launched its “Declaration for the Future of the Internet.” It asserts that human rights and democratic values must remain
Developing world needs an alternative to American tech.
Moreover, in a joint statement announcing South Korea’s plan to host the third Summit for Democracy, the United States and Korea promoted “ensuring new and emerging technologies work for, and not against, democratic societies” as a priority.
Does that mean everything has to have a backdoor for the CIA?
BRISCS nations are going RISC-V - for varied reasons - as quickly as they can (and the EU may well follow suit).
China is a huge producer - if not THE biggest manufacturer - of electronics.
Those two points alone suggest a RISC-V revolution, in BRISCS and 3rd-World economies. RISC-V cores have been used in microcontroller roles for a while now, and we’re now seeing RISC-V chips being used as primary processors.
Aren’t those chips more efficient as well?
They can be but it’s up to the hardware implementation moreso than the ISA.
Never saw such many buzzwords in my life
“In April 2022, the United States launched[…]” yet another initiative to cut off China in order to maintain sole superpower status in the world because the US love their monopolies (as long as they’re the one with the monopoly). Then they claim they’re doing this for humanitarian reasons. Idiots believe them while thinking they’re immune to propaganda and shout down and downvote anyone on the internet that presents an opposing view.
Lol anything US and China is a big NO No for me
The odds you typed that from a device that wasn’t at least in part designed in the US and manufacturered in China are quite low.
True :(
Too bad open source software doesn’t exist
Too bad open source hardware doesn’t exist either

While corporate America focuses on mainly profits, “fighting for human rights” are just empty slogan, because corporate American will exploit human misery for profits. For government, it’s going to be “to prevent China from becoming the dominant tech power in the developing world” that’s going to drive this sort of initiative, which most likely will have mixed results or fail miserably altogether. Chinese exports are already driving the non-elite consumer markets in the developing worlds.
