The US was trying to scam TSMC. So what happens next? Will TSMC still build its fab in the US?

I know it is in the title but can this really be it for the CHIPS act? This is bad performance even by the US standard. I’m not sympathetic I just didn’t think the failure will be so decisive and so early.

So what’s next for CHIPS and fabrication in the US?

What? No the US have stipulations to get the promised subsidies that TSMC is just outright ignoring or refusing. Tit for tat.

I don’t think TSMC has much interest in building fabs in US because it’s one card they hold over the US at the moment.
