It’s not just hardware supplier are cutting them off that’s the problem…. It’s all the software that’s also being cut off.
Google cutting them out of Android was already pretty bad, but at least they could substitute their O/S, even though it would be drastically inferior to Android….
But ARM, a British company, cutting them off is really bad, because it basically means they are completely on their own to design processors….They can’t simply leverage ARM, which is what ever other company that wants to do their own silicon uses. it would take years for them to do this
