The TSMC fab takeover has raised concerns among former Intel directors, who believe it poses significant risks. However, a consortium-based fab spinoff model may offer a more favorable alternative.One major concern is the potential for national security breaches, as sensitive information could be compromised through a single point of control. This raises questions about the long-term implications for global security.A consortium-based approach, on the other hand, would involve multiple companies working together to share resources and expertise, potentially reducing risks and promoting cooperation rather than competition.
