There are 8.3 billion people in the world and making Silicon valley tech companies have all of the control, power and profits isn't what we signed up for.
The American-centric viewpoint on the world revolving around yourselves, the hubris.
The truth is out about Nvidia now in the news and it's worse than Enron.
America has swapped one master for another with AI/SI companies now disrupting their own technology with a worse dystopian system, where they use your data to train and spy on you, put in data limits, cut off users who aren't nice to their non-sentient binary chatbots, and don't provide human customer support, only an AI chatbot.
Jacking up compute, GPU, and memory prices via creating a closed system of distribution that benefits their own investments, so we all are disadvantaged in participating in open technology.
I respect any country or company that builds their own systems, becomes independently sovereign in their own technology stack and has full control of their own data privacy, outside of unethical Silicon Valley, every layer you peel back, all you find is corruption.
We deserve the right to decide how technology is controlled and used, without 8 companies manipulating the internet and blocking off the rest of the world from shaping our own futures.
It's also just a convenient business position; it benefited them to close source the drives and it benefited them to push products out the door that used it and an ecosystem of users to buy the hardware up and down the stack.
And had they actually cared, they wouldn't have started canabalizing the lower end; they would have produced larger VRAM versions, etc.
It was absolutely about driving sales under a "progressive" POV.
