    The big issue with quantum computing and Photonic computing research is that almost everyone is off on a different path hiding IP, overinflating, and sometimes just lying about their findings to gain more funding. So tbh, it sounds like Trump would fit in beautifully.

    I would be shocked if anymore than 1% of the startup quantum and Photonic companies in existence now actually end up creating a useful, real world repeatable, successful usable devices or parts of a device.

    I think it's safe to assume everything this regime does "may not be entirely legal".

      A this point I believe the only laws being respected are the laws of physics, and even then, it's not by choice.
