China bans export of rare earths processing tech over national security

Hey! You aren't allowed to do that! Only America is allowed to ban exports because of national security.

I wonder when these poor resources will be liberated. The regions in China which have these resources must be freedomized.

West will just have to use their superior innovation skills I guess. 😂

Isn't that their long national tradition? Like with paper technology, silk technology or porcelain technology?

No better way to boost diversion, and probably a net win for the planet considering how dirty and environmentally harmful the rare earth supply chain is today.

Banning tech? Did they develop this tech the same way they developed the rest of their tech?

The pot is boiling, the countdown is starting.... We will see how long more until they hit Taiwan.

Go home pot, you're drunk

Anyone who knows anything about China's REE processing industry should be terrified. They're so far ahead it's not even funny.
