The Chip War rages on between the United States and China, as Biden's Commerce Department has added 37 Chinese entities involved in quantum technology to the Entity List under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), harshly restricting the flow of American resources to the targeted entities.
37 entities in the most recent revision of the Entity List were added due to their involvement in quantum computing research or the China spy balloon incident. Quantum research is a burgeoning field that has recently attracted the eye of world governments. 22 of the targeted entities were specifically linked by the Commerce Department to state-run efforts to advance in quantum research, or for seeking to acquire US-originating tech for the study of quantum computing.
