Like Google's Dragonfly. Or AT&T letting the NSA splice intercepts in the main fiber room.

Ntk only.

intelligence services play the long game. Gradually exert pressure, put friendly management in place, move supporting services to Chinese data centers, etc. Maybe it takes 10 years. They aren’t in any rush.

Click on his profile. He's the CTO of the company.

Even if you're the CTO of a US company that's being infiltrated by a foreign intelligence agency, there are only three possibilities:

* You are a foreign intelligence asset and and any denials on your part are lies.

* You are not a foreign intelligence asset, but you know that strange things are afoot and have informed the FBI. In order to not jeopardize the counterintelligence investigation, you have been instructed to play dumb, and hence, any denials on your part are lies.

* You are not a foreign intelligence asset and you have not noticed the infiltration. In this situation, you're not lying when you deny that anything's going on, you're just ignorant.

Of course, if your company isn't being infiltrated by foreign intelligence, you will also, correctly, deny that the company is being infiltrated. I'm not saying that his company is being infiltrated or compromised; I'm saying that there's virtually zero informational value in someone in his position denying such a thing because no one would ever admit it.
