You’re right - it should be articulated. But, likely, what happened is that it is the opinion of some influential person[s] that we need to slow down China. If so, the questions are 1) is it going to work?, or 2) may it lead to opposite results? And, most importantly - what good does it do for us? Will we be able to use the opportunity to jump ahead of our potential adversary in important ways? Or, are we going to waste time and money, and stay busy with pronouns and sensitivity training?

If we will NOT use effectively the time it will take them to develop replacement technologies - then, what’s the point? Also, since the revenues of our semiconductor companies will decrease, the only way they’d be able to move faster than China is if the government helps them. This means more power to Uncle Sam.

Companies are added to the unverified list when U.S. authorities cannot complete on-site visits to determine if they can be trusted to receive sensitive U.S. technology, forcing U.S. suppliers to take greater care when shipping to them.
Under a new policy announced on Friday, if a government prevents U.S. officials from conducting site checks at companies placed on the unverified list, U.S. authorities will start the process for adding them to the entity list after 60 days.

This is the goat? "Papers, please."

Seems like a capitulation to Chinese IP theft. If you can't trust 'em with sensitive tech, beat 'em senseless with bully tactics. The old Fascist way.

Who gets to see the "unverified list"? How about the newcomers?
