Nvidia could face more scrutiny by new Congress in wake of spy probe
What happened
An incoming Democratic majority in the US Congress is likely to place Nvidia under greater scrutiny in light of recent revelations that the chipmaker's CEO, Jensen Huang, had an affair with an alleged Chinese spy ('likely' indicates expectation, not an implemented action). The legislature is already advancing a series of bills that seek to halt the flow of advanced US chips to China; these bills are in the process of being advanced and are not stated to be in effect. The stated cause is the aforementioned revelations about the CEO.
