Some would argue much of Chinese tech IS US tech. A derivative that is.

Not just China, but also Iran. One reason is that some tech (i.e. microchips, etc.) has both civilian (i.e. kitchen appliance, etc.) and military (i.e. drone) use.

Exclusive: Biden task force investigating how US tech ends up in Iranian attack drones used...
TheBiden administration has launched an expansive task force to investigate how US and western components,including American-made microelectronics, are ending up in Iranian-made drones Russia is launching by the hundreds into Ukraine, multiple officials familiar with the effort tell CNN.

Honestly (and I'm not being flip), I have never needed an expansive task force to understand how our enemies obtained our tech. They steal it via espionage, or are given the tech by our government during a lapse in common sense. A good example of this would be Bill Clinton's authorized the sale of a Loral-made satellite to China in February 1998.

..."What lies ahead
Chipmakers are also under pressure to make more advanced chips to support new products.
For instance, Apple's new laptop will contain chips from industry leader Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company measuring 3 nanometres. To put that into perspective - a human hair measures roughly 50,000 to 100,000 nanometres.
Analysts say US controls could put China further behind other chip producing countries, even though Beijing has openly said it wants to prioritise the manufacture of semiconductors and become a superpower in the sector.
The US has already significantly isolated China's chip industry, even though the latest measures are not as sweeping as those announced in October."...

I hope that Pres. Biden does put his thumb on the Red Chinese semiconductor business. We are already too dependent on them.
