Companies need to be able to pivot to deal with these types of things but SE's complacent approach to their servers have showed quite the failure. If they "did everything within their power to take care of things"...what exactly did they do?
First, no one is expecting Covid 19
Second, no one is expecting US government would be "not smart" enough to actually launch economy war on China during Covid 19.
A lot of restrictions have been put on TMSC and that Korean semiconductors manufactures where they need to do background check first
What do you expect these manufactures do?
Do the background check or just sell to the companies they recgonize?
This further add burden to the semiconductor shortage.
So get over with it and deal with it
