The U.S. House of Representatives' Select Committee on China has criticized Nvidia for allegedly sharing its Santa Clara campus with Futurewei, a subsidiary of Huawei that is blacklisted in the U.S. The committee raised concerns about Futurewei's ties to Huawei and its potential for industrial espionage, despite presenting itself as a separate U.S. entity. There are fears that China may be leveraging American hardware, like Nvidia's, for its technological advancements in civilian and military applications. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang believes in global technology sharing, while the government aims to restrict China's access to American hardware to maintain a competitive edge.
