A "dirty bomb" is a dispersal device containing a radioactive material - possibly uranium, but more likely low-grade materials such as cesium-137 or other radioactive materials commonly used in less medical facilities
The world map is made of chips. Technological development is only possible when the borders are open. Image: depositphotos.com

Will stopping chip sales to China slow down technology development worldwide?

Scientific and technological progress is based on collaborations, on the exchange of knowledge and experience, on a global market of ideas. Any harm to the ability of scientists to communicate freely across political borders will also harm their ability to produce knowledge
