I appreciate the detailed write up :
The scheme operated as follows. Liaw and Chang, who worked closely with third-party brokers with customers based in China, directed certain executives of a company based in Southeast Asia (“Company-1”) to place purchase orders with the U.S. Manufacturer for servers with certain GPUs, purportedly for Company-1. Those servers were often assembled in the United States and shipped to the U.S. Manufacturer’s facilities in Taiwan, then delivered to Company-1 elsewhere in Southeast Asia. Company-1, in consultation with the defendants, then used a shipping and logistics company to repackage the U.S. Manufacturer’s servers and place them in unmarked boxes to conceal their content prior to shipping them to their final destinations in China. To ensure that these server allocations were approved internally at the U.S. Manufacturer, the defendants and executives at Company-1 prepared false documents and records, and transmitted false communications, purporting to show that Company-1 was the end user of the servers.
@DHSgov I think this is one of his sad stories that doesn’t get hardly any press. Even when there’s movies about it it seems like the movie has a hard time getting distribution. Thanks for this effort.
@XFreeze I do think it's important that Grokapedia is downloadable, so we can run full audits of it. I stopped using wikipedia but am waiting for full audits of the Grok one before I start using it.
the super wierd thing in CA is the “death cult” wants to control all 3D printing, is kind of scary (they are using gun control as their predicate for change on ). I can’t even ponder what would happen if these guys in CA / leftist democrats (they are not liberal democrats) would do.
@NSACyber wow, this is kind of scary stuff. I had to read this multiple times, great overview of a complex topic. I like the information on tpm, and didn't understand the relationship explained before reading this.
