NVDA--
In a blog post published on Tuesday, Nvidia emphasized that embedding such features would be counterproductive, stating that it would "undermine global digital infrastructure and fracture trust in U.S. technology" [3]. The company has been facing increased scrutiny over the security of its H20 chips, which are used in data centers, gaming, and artificial intelligence applications.
The Chinese government's concerns are based on potential vulnerabilities and backdoors in the chips, as well as calls from U.S. lawmakers for mandatory tracking features to be placed on advanced chips exported from the country [2]. Despite the recent scrutiny, Nvidia's stock rose on Friday, reflecting investor confidence in the company's ability to navigate the regulatory challenges [2].
Nvidia has been actively engaging with both Chinese and U.S. authorities to address their concerns and maintain compliance with regulations. The latest developments reflect broader tensions between Washington and Beijing, as both governments tighten their grip on key technologies and digital infrastructure.
