Yudhijit Bhattacharjee, Spy Games; How the downfall of one intelligence agent revealed the astonishing depth of China's espionage campaign against America. New York Times Magazine, Mar 12, 2023, at page 22.


Excerpts in the windows of print:
(a) The ubiquitous use of iPhones around the world -- a result of American technological prowess -- was helping to fight back against a rival nation's efforts to steal technology.
(b) 'What they call exchanges are not just a nice invitation,' a prosecutor says. 'It's part of a recruiting cycle. Some pan out, some don't.'

My comment:
(a) Not a NYT employee, Mr Bhattacharjee is a free-lance writer based in Washington, DC.
(b) I wonder whether US gained anything by convicting a low-level Chinese agent (QU Hui, whose "real name was XU Yanjun").
(c) 明镜 said that was 许颜君.
