Maybe it isn't displaying on mobile or something, but there's a grey box in the article that shows step-by-step what happens.
> A Microsoft engineer in China files an online “ticket” to take on the work.
> A U.S.-based escort picks up the ticket.
> The engineer and the escort meet on the Microsoft Teams conferencing platform.
> The engineer sends computer commands to the U.S. escort, presenting an opportunity to insert malicious code.
> The escort, who may not have advanced technical expertise, inputs the commands into the federal cloud system.
