  1. Back in my Cold War days we had opportunity to examine a Soviet illicit clone of the Radio Shack TR(a)S(h) 80. They had problems with integrated circuit boards, so it had lots of jumper wires with twisted soldered connections. Needless to say the exposed wires generated their own static picked up by neighboring wires which induced multiple errors. The box was just full of wires. They eventually sort of solved it as their clone of the C64, although a little larger than a real one used far less wiring. Then there was the plot to allow them to 'steal' flawed various item designs with hidden back doors hard wired into source code, but that's a story in itself. Sufficient to say it worked..

  2. China recently announced that they have made a 7 nanometer chip.

  3. It is true. Not just General Purpose computers either. Also specialized stuff used in other industries. Intentionally designed with well hidden flaws, then placed on the export restricted Secret list as part if the plan, then we sat back watching and giggling as their KGB followers (aka spies and traitors) proceeded to steal and smuggle the stolen items and designs back to Mother Russia and clone and distribute them for the USSR's own use.
