Everyone on that board will have had knowledge of GPUs going to China. Everyone on on THIS board has knowledge about GPUs going to China. Jeez.

So, you think that crime is good?
Yeah itβs great.
I'm going to suggest that everyone or a lot of people on the board likely knew about the affairs as well. Jensen wasn't exactly hiding it.
This is a CYA move by the board as all this is becoming public.

They had some amount of plausible deniability until the "spy" story made the news then they didn't.

If the reporting is to be believed, they ended up selling around $7.5B to China through Singapore.
They did ~$90B in revenue last quarter.
I sometimes can't imagine the avarice it takes to do things like this. Could you imagine having a $100 bill in your hand and going "Yea, I'll break the law and possibly destroy my life to steal $7.50"
The difference between 100 billion and 107.5 billion is a 7.5 BILLION dollars.
Another way to put it is the difference between 75 MILLION and 7.5 BILLION is rounded to 7.4 BILLION.
The scale of numbers is huge and it is not just another 7.5 billion dollars.
