Jensen is a fantastic founder and what he achieved is nothing short of extraordinary. He should be celebrated for that.
However, there are 2 issues.
First, everything points to the fact that he knowingly evaded sales restriction to China on products that are considered crucial to national security. That's pretty much equivalent to leaking confidential info from Los Alamos during WW2...
Second, I like to think that US, despite all its challenges recently, is still a country of law. Nvidia is a public company. With great power comes great responsibility. He failed that responsibility. I really don't see why law shouldn't apply to him.
If this was a cut and dried evasion of export controls we would have a very different situation.
The fact is that many disagree with their decision to make the chips more available, but people’s opinions are not laws.
