An employee of the video platform Zoom who is based in China was spying on Chinese dissidents for the Communist Chinese government, according to a federal indictment announced on Friday.
Xinjiang Jin, also known as Julien Jin, was charged with conspiracy to commit interstate harassment and unlawful conspiracy to transfer means of identification. Some of his targets were living in the United States.
Jin served as Zoom’s in-house liaison to the Chinese government and had extensive interaction with Zoom executives in the United States.
John Demers, the assistant attorney general for national security, said that the case shows that U.S. executives are at risk of being co-opted by the Chinese government when doing business with Beijing.
“No company with significant business interests in China is immune from the coercive power of the Chinese Communist Party [CCP],” Demers said in a statement.
That much has been obvious for decades but the lure of being able to do business in a country of a billion people proves too much for most. The price paid for being allowed to do that business is usually steep.
Part of that price was Jin himself.

What has also been a mystery was where they got their start up money from prior to going public - some think they were backed by China's PLA.
There's alot of question marks around this company that need addressing.
How many people were murdered because of what he did to help the communists?
Same question can be said of the bidens, obama, clintons etc and all the other US politicians and business people who help the communists.
The other day the “news” mentioned how intelligence agencies use Zoom. I thought how the hell could that be secure?? Unfreakin’real.
