    US Crackdown on China IP Theft Snares Ex-Coca-Cola Scientist

    Another week, another China-linked case about intellectual property theft. This time, U.S. authorities have charged a Chinese-born, Michigan-based engineer—a former Coca-Cola employee—with the attempted theft of trade secrets valued at almost $120 million.


    You Xiaorong, also known as Shannon You, worked as a principle engineer for global research at an unnamed Atlanta company from 2012-2017, the Justice Department said Thursday. Coca-Cola told the Wall Street Journal that it was the company in question.


    At Coke, You had access to trade secrets regarding the development of new coatings for the inside of cans and other containers, that were free of bisphenol-A (BPA)—a coating that was used for a long time but that is now known to have harmful effects. She then went on to work for a packaging company in Tennessee where she also had access to trade secrets.


    According to the indictment, she then took trade secrets to China, in order to give them to a state-backed company there. U.S. prosecutors—who have recently lobbed intellectual property theft charges at Huawei and a Chinese former Apple employee—said this formed part of a pattern.


    In the context of the U.S.-China trade war, which is partly about the issue of IP theft, it is now beyond doubt that the Justice Department is trying to send China a message.


    “The conduct alleged in today’s indictment exemplifies the rob, replicate and replace approach to technological development,” said Assistant Attorney General John Demers.

    “Unfortunately, China continues to use its national programs, like the ‘Thousand Talents,’ to solicit and reward the theft of our nation’s trade secrets and intellectual property, but the Justice Department will continue to prioritize investigations like these, to ensure that China understands that this criminal conduct is not an acceptable business or economic development practice.”


    You wasn’t the only one charged in this case—so were Chinese national Liu Xiangchen and an unnamed third co-conspirator. Liu apparently manages the Chinese company that would have manufactured products based on the allegedly stolen secrets, and paid You with money and part-ownership of a new company that would have “owned” the secrets.

    Or more likely "as if other nationals don't steal trade secrets".

    Yes, he hasn't quite grasped the meaning of the word "systematically". I suspect it's a bit long for him.

    I don't think you appreciate the scale of Chinastan's government-sponsored, systematic theft.

    An alleged industrial spy "giving" her stolen knowledge to her country, how patriotic of her. She must know exactly the going rate for "secret formulae".

    If Chinese citizens were the only thieves in the world I could sympathise with you. Unfortunately some are aware that others engage in similar work daily.

    As I have previously pointed out these types of thievery have been going on for centuries by all races.

    Your attention on one country suggests fear.

    I look forward to the court case, the secrets disclosed and what deal is brokered to conceal the truth. ameristani legal system SOP.

    The US stole an entire continent from the Indians and helped the Zionists to steal a country from the Palestinians and still spending billions of dollars every year to make sure the Zionists keep that stolen country....all the while boohooing because a Chinese phone that looks similar to an iPhone is trashing that iPhone in sales.

    Not to mention all the middle eastern countries the US have looted for oil and the untold human devastation caused over more recent times.

    ...& lets not forget the entirety of western civilisation is built on k̶n̶o̶w̶l̶e̶d̶g̶e̶ 'intellectual property' from the east.

    God we really are getting blabbering finger pointing today.

    You forgot to mention the evil colonialist British Empire.

    You seem to somehow think that wrongs of days long gone somehow justify Chinastan's wanton theft of others property.

    Days long gone?

    I'm surprised Omo hasn't brought up the stealing of the gunpowder formula from China.
    Oh fook I wish I hadn't said that. Tedious, repetitive obfusgating reply on the way shortly.

    As opposed to such an event it is deemed warranted a post in the News section.

    But a laughing smiley,

    A fellow structural engineers? We do have strange humour.

    The best one is miscalculations on concrete suspension bridge slabs. Oh how we laugh when one side is a metre too high, (when they don't meet in the middle.)

    Meanwhile another vile chinky criminal bites the dust.



    Tanzania has sentenced Yang Fenglan, a Chinese businesswoman nicknamed the "Ivory Queen", to 15 years in jail for smuggling hundreds of elephant tusks.


    Yang was accused of operating one of Africa's biggest ivory-smuggling rings, responsible for smuggling $2.5m (£1.9m) worth of tusks from some 400 elephants.
