From the post: "China has introduced new guidelines that will mean US microprocessors from Intel and AMD are phased out of government PCs and servers, as Beijing ramps up a campaign to replace foreign technology with homegrown solutions. The stricter government procurement guidance also seeks to sideline Microsoft’s Windows operating system and foreign-made database software in favour of domestic options. It runs alongside a parallel localisation drive under way in state-owned enterprises. "

The stricter government procurement guidance also seeks to sideline Microsoft’s Windows operating system and foreign-made database software in favour of domestic options.

The only “domestic options” China has are software they stole, and open source software.

The article mentions two manufacturers of chinese silicon: Huawei and Phytium. Odds are they're just Intel/AMD chips with the serial numbers filed off.

So they are switching to cloned chips and Chinese language Linux distros?

Basically, yeah. They still want the spying tools.. Just the ones they built. (or more likely stole and modified).
