US revokes licences for sales of some chips to China's Huawei ( www.bbc.com )

The US government says it has revoked some licences that allowed US chip makers to export certain goods to Chinese technology giant Huawei.

The Department of Commerce did not specify which permits were cancelled but the move follows Huawei's release of an AI-enabled computer powered by a chip created by Intel.

American chip maker Intel declined to comment to a request for comment from BBC News. The BBC has also contacted Huawei and San Diego-based chip giant Qualcomm for responses to the announcement. 

Since 2019, the US has restricted technology exports, such as computer chips, to Huawei, citing alleged ties to the Chinese military.

Got to love that "free" market. The US is such a shitty joke.

This move hurts more the us and Intel than china and Huawei.

It will just accelerate the transition to homegrown processors, turning tables
