Finally, someone gets it. There is a lot of other well intended, intellectually driven arguments and opinions in this thread, but I am afraid that the people actually making the calls here are mostly likely being guided by their own self interests.

No no, this is what I'm trying to get to the bottom of. I don't see any way this is strictly substantially bad for consumers or reduces competition in a way that antitrust law would apply, and I don't see any way this is at all bad for the US strategically. So the FTC is issuing a complaint in response to ..something.. that goes against the interest of our own government and has nothing to do with consumers (hell I'd love to see an Nvidia N2 SoC that competes with the Apple M1). Bingo, it's other big tech firms lobbying. These other big tech firms most certainly have y'alls interest at heart and are just looking out for you, small fry. Give me a break!

Nothing is stopping Nvidia from creating a N2 SoC that competes with the Apple M1. They don’t need to own ARM to do that. They can even create their own SOC with a Nvidia GPU.
