Two Chinese nationals have been arrested in connection with illegally shipping AI microchips to China, according to the Justice Department.
 
Chuan Geng, 28, of Pasadena, Calif., and Shiwei Yang, 28, of El Monte, Calif., allegedly exported to China tens of millions of dollars’ worth of sensitive microchips used in AI apps, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Central District of California announced Tuesday.

Geng is a lawful permanent resident and Yang is an illegal immigrant who overstayed her visa.

They are charged with violating the Export Control Reform Act, a felony that carries a statutory maximum sentence of 20 years in federal prison. They were taken into custody on Saturday.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Yeah, one or two out there, and that edge is gone.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
