>MegaSpeed was illegally diverting chips to China.

Last time I looked, the US's laws weren't applied by default to the whole world, and states remain sovereign. Is there a piece of international law that you know of and the rest of the world does not ?

Ok, more accurately, Huang was attempting to prevent the U.S. government from blocking sales to MegaSpeed (and probably violating laws by ignoring the red flags).

Last time you looked the US didn't have export controls that require Nvidia to KYC and not sell its most advanced processors to China? Well, look harder I guess? Checkout the ECRA and the associated executive orders.
