So Intel knowingly ships faulty chips which smells of fraud and reveals a weakness in all of USA computers to another country which is known to employ cybercriminals ... how on earth do they get away scot free? No criminal charges?
I suppose in the eyes of these governments, they are.
I wonder if Intel just did it over the unsecured line, knowing that the NSA/FBI wiretaps that one...
In the reverse direction, the US has tried to sentence Chinese military members - https://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2014/05/19/chinese-mili...
It also reveals weakness in Chinese, Russian and even Venezuelan Intel-based PCs and while you may not agree that customers in these countries deserve to get notified on par with top tier U.S. customers, (questionable stance), Intel clearly does, since at this point, it is a multinational corporation with large customer base outside the U.S.
