It was a forced acquisition, iirc they made promises to Altera to get them to use their foundry, failed to keep those promises and could either get sued and embarrassed or just buy Altera outright for about what they were worth before the deal.

No, there was a DIY diode prob with a headline number high enough, but I think he said real world performance would be about 8ghz, that's only part of the problem anyway. I had a look, I can't find the forum post or the podcast he was on (amphour). Either rent an appropriate USB analyzer or scope. If you just want to verify the speed of your consumer equipment look for a software solution to measure throughput (there is significant protocol overhead). At the required speed you can't even use BNCs.

He has a Victoria Cross (Medal of Honor equivalent), you basically have to be mental and not care for your own life to get one, so we shouldn't turn around and be shocked when they don't value the lives of the enemy and their supporters.

If they didn't copy the peripheral blocks, then all they did was implement the ARM IP just like ST Micro did in a way to be pin to pin compatible with the STM32 chips. Happy to learn otherwise. I wouldn't put them in a real product for many reasons but this is not one of them.

Revoke his bail! He has always been a major flight risk due to the possibility that he has squirreled away many millions via crypto. 250m of surety has not been provided and now due to the use of a VPN we cannot be assured he has not already made arrangements to flee and or tampered with witnesses.
