China suddenly intervenes, Intel's stock price drops sharply!
On the afternoon of the 16th, the China Internet Space Security Association issued a document saying that Intel's security vulnerabilities are frequent and the failure rate is high, and it should systematically investigate the cybersecurity risks of Intel's products!
The article said that Intel's global annual revenue of more than US$50 billion, nearly one-fourth of which comes from the Chinese market. In 2021, Intel's CPU accounted for about 77% of the domestic desktop market and about 81% of the notebook market; in 2022, Intel's x86 server market share in China was about 91%. Intel can be said to have made a fortune in China, but the company has done things that harm China's interests and threaten China's national security.
The article shows that it is suggested to start a cybersecurity review of Intel's products sold in China, and to effectively safeguard China's national security and the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese consumers.
