If you presume innocence, this requirement can also be interpreted in a harmless way as the funder asking the student to report his/her achievement for an evaluation of the progress. The level of detail and the scope would matter a lot

As an Chinese expat, I have indeed heard rumors about undercovers from Chinese three letters agencies in events organized by dissentients (like falungong) and I would try my best to avoid being involved. However I hope the collateral damage

I admittedly misread the title and thought that some people are creatively repurposing this audio streaming program for transferring IQ datastreams for Software defined radio (SDR) receivers... It may be actually doable with some hacking.
