    I disagree with the premise that open-source is “Western” philosophy. China is a huge driver of open-source software. Huawei and Alibaba are top Linux kernel contributors and every day I hear about a new RISC-V startup from China. If anything, China is the realm where all knowledge is shared and the West is where knowledge is hidden behind IP laws.
