ARM is unsurprisingly distancing themselves from them.
The irony about this here is about around a year ago, the UK Government were ready to green light plans for China to build a nuclear power station here in the UK for us that probably would of been powerful enough to run a quarter of the UK. Obviously security issues were considered and re-considered and the construction never went ahead but the fact that they even considered it was a laughable one. Its as silly as inviting Russia in to build our Nuclear Submarines.
But yes -- ARM is owned by a big Japanese conglomerate that owns 100% of ARM, Boston Dynamics, Fortress Investment Group and 87.1% stake in Brightstar Corporation -- all of which are American companies. Im guessing that SoftBank Group (The parent company/owners) had to act due to pressure from US Politicians.
Another thing which is also kinda ironic is that EPIC Games is part owned by a big chinese company which has ties to the chinese government but somehow they arent a security risk at all. While telecommunications is of course more important than some software you can install on your PC. It could still become a threat if Tencent buys a bigger stake in the company and start having their own people write the software for the launcher so they could put in all sorts of spyware and backdoors etc etc and its funny because a lot of people play fortenight. All Tencent would have to do is release an update for a launch and of a sudden they can turn every computer on the network into a zombie node
-- It sounds like a hollywood movie i know but you cant rule out that it wont happen since cyber attacks these days are a thing of the future.
