- i_am_proteus 8y agoIf the US government engaged in industrial espionage against a foreign company, whatever US company benefitted could be sued in a US court. What troubles me (and many others) about the PRC's behavior is the PRC's disregard for IP: US/European/other countries have no recourse. https://law.stanford.edu/2018/04/10/intellectual-property-china-china-stealing-american-ip/ https://law.stanford.edu/2018/04/10/intellectual-property-ch...
- devoply 8y agoIn theory yes in reality no. In cases of both China and the USA. Please cite any exceptions of where anything as such went to court. The reason being that it's very difficult to prove that your secrets were stolen. Sure you can sue companies for copying your products, and you can also prevent US and Europe from importing goods from China which have been copied even if you can't get a Chinese court to decide wrongdoing in your favor.
