    You’re vastly overestimating the American market’s shrinking impact on the global economy. China (and international firms using Chinese manufacturing) have been targeting the Chinese domestic market, the growing SEA market, and working to open the EU market (because EU leaders have to realize eventually they can’t possibly compete against China in electronics manufacturing eventually). This added onto the fact the American economy is at it’s lowest point in history (when factoring actual CoL and median Debt-to-Income ratio) and has no signs of slowing its freefall means the FCC has as much power on the international market as Kenya does.

    Markets outside the US will likely default to the EU regulatory standards which are close enough to Canadian standards they would just need to pay for the certification costs to pass in Canada.

    On the plus side the Nvidia/AMD duopoly will unironically come to an end due to this. Chinese chips are only 5-10 years behind (besides AI Compute chips which are almost on par with Nvidia now) and are around 100x cheaper.
