What’s your suggested remedy?

Deregulate RISC-V, threaten Intel with loss of IP if they can't profit on fabs, threaten to cut Softbank off of American companies if Masayoshi Son won't onshore RISC manufacturing.

There's soft-power coercion left on the table, the only thing we buy with Intel stock is a C-suite's dinner bill.

    What does that even mean?!?

    It's already OSS and royalty free. I've participated Series A and B rounds on startups working on RISC-V design.

    > threaten Intel with loss of IP if they can't profit on fabs

    Investing in Capex is inherently going to put you in a loss for several quarters

    > threaten to cut Softbank off of American companies if Masayoshi Son won't onshore RISC manufacturing

    He doesn't own RISC-V IP.
