Isn't he going to be in litigation for the next N years? How can he focus if he is in court and depositions?

not trying to hate at all, just curious what this article is trying to achieve

Litigated by whom? Look at what happened with Sam Altman: when he returned he forced the existing board members out, replacing them with loyalists.

When you go for the king, you better not miss.

Did they miss? Sure looks like a bullseye

Two firings of extremely different nature. The U.S. government and/or it's trade policies wasn't involved in the Altman ordeal, for starters. Jensen will be investigated for a very long time; none of this is getting washed away any time soon. Cabinet members are involved.

Depends on whether there's defacto evidence he know Megaspeed was shipping his cards to china. Congress would be the one, followed by shareholders for killing stock prices, etc.

over what? NVIDIA will face government scrutiny over GPUs getting to mainland China for a long time. With or without Huang.

I haven't heard that any of the women he has been involved with are making legal threats.

NYTimes is asking hard hitting questions such as "What does it mean to be a spy anyway?". There isn't going to be any litigation from the government. There will be a dog and a pony show though, which should provide sound bites to every opportunistic political hack on the hill.

If anybody had any doubts about the morality of Silicon Valley guys...

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.

it appears that what they did was not illegal under the current rules, which is why they are discussing changing the rules.

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.
