OPPO Responds to Apple's Trade Secrets Lawsuit

Stop hiring Chinese nationals. It's become such a huge problem across the defense industry, technology corporations, and countless other examples. American universities welcome Chinese students (and revenue from the CCP) with open arms, only for them to absorb and frequently steal as much intellectual property as they can get their hands on and flee back to China. It's ridiculous. Time to stop rolling out the red carpet for these people.

Like Apple in general do this without any evidence

Did you even bother to read the previous article or the lawsuit summary before posting? Apple claims that Shi downloaded confidential documents to a USB drive and promised to provide material to a competitor. Or are you simply believing their denial, which any company would do in this situation?

It’s a systemic issue on so many levels that got us to this point. Universities profit from foreigners because they pay full price for tuition even in state schools. For instance a highly educated and intelligent America child will more likely than not go into law or medicine and never give the defense industry consideration. Corporations love to hire foreigns because they can under pay them compared to the American counterparts. That’s not even touching our in general abandonment of education in a culturally level vs China embracing it. It’s frustrating when looking at the big picture and realizing there is no simple solution.

Lol. Suuuuure Oppo! We believe you!

I'm just glad Apple doesn't use IP from other companies without the rights to do so.

Oh wait ...

Careful throwing stones in the liquid glass house.

What I find amazing, and a bit amusing, is that this Shi fellow possibly did not know, or understand, that all his actions on the corporate net are monitored and stored. Now, maybe he knew, did not care, and figured he would be long gone by the time Apple found out. Who knows? However, I would almost think that in the future, whenever an employee gives notice to leave, Apple will immediately review all of their keyboard activity. A bit surprised they don't do that already.

As for OPPO's response, that is the lawyer speaking. Now that the cat is out of the bag, I expect OPPO will distance itself from Shi, possibly end his employment, and throw him to the wolves. OPPO could quietly approach Apple, issue a mea culpa, terminate Shi, and license the technology. No harm, no foul. Mostly.

If OPPO brings to market any tech that vaguely looks 'Apple', Apple will be on them in a heartbeat.

I see you're not fully aware of how the CCP IP theft policy works or how they treat their own. Shi was there only a short time, so it's likely he was primed for that position just to do what is alleged. You can bet that he will never be seen or heard from again. He has done his job, they have the IP so he is dispensable, but they'll never turn him over. They laugh at IP lawsuits because there's no consequences on the international stage for anything they do.
