Yes, Taiwan is the biggest exporter of chips. Have you audited your chips today?

I wonder if even people like Intel or AMD or Nvidia do.

There might be a strict hardware audit process for cryptographic accelerators on IBM Z machines though, I'm not sure, I'm gonna ask though.

It is standard practice in many industries to do hardware audits, including random controls of chip supplies.

These industries are just not sexy enough for the crypto folks to want to learn from, or about.
