The article says they even sued former employees (that were not accused of stealing) for simply having the audacity to start a company in the same field.
Hmmm...when I recently went to China, I talked to a bunch of people about Xi and heard good and bad things. We had very engrossing conversations.
Of course, I can speak Mandarin so perhaps that’s why they felt comfortable talking to me.
I’m also of Mexican descent, so that might be another factor.
The irony is that I feel more comfortable using a throwaway alt on HN for this comment because I’m afraid of trolls stalking me on my real account for saying nice things about my experiences in China.
