    Because they want to add hardware surveillance devices to it say that they made their own architecture? Yk how these communistic countries love to show off

      Nothing about RISC-V disallows hardware-level surveillance. Most if not all surveillance hardware on our devices are really just super-low-power ARM CPUs. You can in theory just make a RISC-V chip capable of doing the same work.

      I do think you’re probably right that it’s more about having exclusive control over the intellectual property and the ISA specification. RISC-V does allow you to close-source your chip designs, but the foundation behind it was only moved to a relatively-neutral country (Switzerland) in 2019, which is some years after Loongson moved to proprietary CPU designs.

      They’re the only ones going proprietary as far as i know, most are going for RISC-V

      Ah yeah, the only ones that like to show off

      Ftfy

      Yk how these communistic countries love to show off

      Also you can do riscv and backdoors.
