Corporate espionage and military intelligence are not clearly separated in China, and this is due to the culture and values of the Chinese Communist Party. This is seen as the same thing, advancing towards the same goal.
This is arguable less of the case in other countries, which is why people in other countries don't understand what is going on right now (i.e. why Huawei is seen as a security threat). The concern is, if you in the future cross the will of the Chinese Communist Party, your national infrastructure may suddenly...behave differently.

- scarejunba 8y agoIt’s mostly science fiction at this point. You’ll only get vague comments at best. It may well be true, but the people you’re talking to don’t know. Always remember: you’re almost certainly talking to a software engineer with an active imagination using Wikipedia to selectively back up their stories.
- scarcely 8y agoThey always make sure to put a TON of "citations” in their comments too lmao.
