At the time I worked for an ASML contractor, the joke was that the chinese already have all the ASML code, just they couldn't compile it. This sounded so true, because the ASML code is the worst pile of c built over almost 40 years that the world has ever seen and because the chinese were rather blatant in their attempts to steal whatever they can from ASML.
- mhh__ 5y ago> the chinese were rather blatant in their attempts to steal whatever they can from ASML. Any stories you have (and are allowed to) tell?
- gostsamo 5y agoNot personal, but chinese agents would wait in front of the ASML buildings and target ethnic chinese workers offering them money and honor if they come back to the motherland and work there. Stories about stolen laptops and so on.
