U.S. Indicts Server Executives Over China Exports
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York on Thursday charged three people linked to Super Micro Computer with illegally diverting billions of dollars in AI servers to China, alleging violations of the Export Control Reform Act. The indictment names co-founder Yih‑Shyan "Wally" Liaw and two associates, says a Southeast Asian middleman was used, and notes shipments contained Nvidia H200 GPUs subject to U.S. export restrictions.
