> observed the FBI-led harassment of Chinese scientists
give me a break - chinese students with USA sponsorship write reports back to their sponsors, and some of them do grab data and code, by the thousands.. I have seen it on networks and I believe in person at University.. one line about alleged harassment is equivalent to nothing without that context
- HarryHirsch 5y agoReports from Chinese graduate students to their sponsors - of course they would report to their funding agency, any funding agency will insist on progress reports. There's no need to elevate that to some sort of conspiracy straight of Our Man in Havana, complete with atomic vacuum cleaners. Right now the federales are coming after a mathematician from Southern Illinois University: https://www.science.org/content/article/trial-mathematician-next-test-u-s-prosecution-academics-under-china-initiative https://www.science.org/content/article/trial-mathematician-... Dude is interested in control theory and had a joint appointment at two Chinese universities. You do ask - what does the government hope to achieve?
