Of course the US government can still simply nationalize it and resell it, but it would force the US government to show how government actually works when it desires to.

how though? the assets are in China. best they could do is authorize a clone in the US but they'd lose the existing data in the process.

I think that wouldn't be news, it's what happens a lot lately
