EXCLUSIVE: YouTube Employs Chinese Communist ‘State Secrecy Bureau’ Software Engineers
National Pulse ^ | 12/10/2020 | Natalie Winters

Posted on 12/10/2020 8:44:50 AM PST by SeekAndFind

YouTube – the Google-owned video platform making headlines for vowing to censor all content flagging “election fraud or errors” – employs software engineers with ties to the Chinese Communist Party, The National Pulse can reveal.

A host of software engineers for the platform have formerly worked for Chinese Communist Party-run institutions, raising the question as to why a revolving door exists between YouTube and the China-based universities.

A software engineer for the video platform since May of 2019,Tai Jinjiang, previously worked as a project manager for Guanghzou Shian Technology.

Jinjiang detailed his work for the China-based firm as playing a “major role in successful PLA certification of ShiAn terminal by Ministry of Public Security, State Secrecy Bureau, and IT Evaluation Center.”

In other words, Jinjiang led software efforts on behalf of the PLA – appearing to reference China’s People’s Liberation Army – and a host of Chinese government-led intelligence bodies. What’s more, he notes he “garnered numerous staff awards for excellent performance.”


Additionally, Xiao Chen – who lists himself as a software engineer at YouTube since November of 2020 – previously served as a Research Assistant at Sun Yat-Sen University.

The university – which recently dispatched a researcher to the U.S. who pleaded guilty to lying to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) over ties to China – has also seen its Supercomputing Center on the U.S. government’s entity list since 2015 – a “list of people and companies the U.S. government deems a national security risk.”



Another software engineer, Xifei Huang, has worked at YouTube since February 2014 despite previously working as a Developer for Beijing-based Peking University.


Peking University – which has also seen its researchers sentenced by the FBI for stealing intellectual property and failing to disclose Chinese Communist Party ties – is funded and controlled by the Chinese Communist Party.

The university also counts former and current party apparatchiks among its leadership, including its leader: a former head of the country’s spy agency’s Beijing branch.

Fan Yang, another YouTube software engineer since April 2017, interned for China Telecom, labeled by the U.S. Department of Defense as collaborating with the Chinese military for over two decades.

Yang later served as a research assistant at Fudan University, which recently cut “freedom of thought” from its charter under Chinese Communist Party demands. During Yang’s Fudan stint, five Chinese military-linked hackers based out of Fudan University were indicted for stealing U.S. secrets.


The unearthed ties cast YouTube’s decision to ban all content disputing a victory for Joe Biden – the Chinese Communist Party’s preferred candidate – in an interesting light. It similarly calls into question reports of YouTube automatically deleting Chinese-language phrases critical of the Chinese Communist Party, which the platformer attributed to “an error in our enforcement systems.”

The revelations also add to a growing list of American tech corporates hiring Chinese Communist Party-linked individuals including Facebook and Twitter. Twitter appointed Dr. Fei-Fei Li as an advisor despite her attendance at several Chinese Communist Party-backed conferences and cooperation with a “leading artificial intelligence research body at Tsinghua University, a prestigious Chinese academic institution that also conducts AI research for the Chinese military.”

If you want to build a new internet that censors itself, you are going to hire the experts at that kind of thing, which would be the Chinese.

Yep; Google (Alphabet Co.) is not our friend even though they have made some good products in the past.

And this goes a long way in explaining why Youtube is now actively censoring anything relating to election fraud in the Presidential election. Clearly China would be much better off with Idiot Joe selling out the nation to them than Trump fighting them economically and with military movements.

So Semimojo, I believe i've said over and over again that if you have a "private" company that can censor for whatever reason they want, they will soon become the bitch of foreign powers making them censor what the foreign powers want censored.

Are you objective enough to see that this is very likely what is happening here?

Absolutely right.

That word "should" has been going nowhere for a long time now. That's why Comey,McCabe and Brennan are at lavish dinner parties with pals instead of having mashed potatoes and greasy cheap hamburgers in a prison dining hall.

There was an earlier story on this subject - Google using PLA CCP software people to recreate Chinese social credit tracking. So it expanded to other parts of their business - to be expected.

This is no surprise. Chinese regime knows where they should embed their agents. They usually pay handsomely for letting their agents in.

The fifth column within the Untied States has been activated by the Chinese Communist party. It is only a matter of time until a major cyber attack will be mounted by the overlords in Beijing, to destroy the economy of the US, and to be in place to pick up the remnants of the tools and means of production, using their own business models and supply chains.

The territory once know as “the United States of America” becomes a colony under the control of people who speak Mandarin.

"Sun Yat-Sen"

There's a throwback, and a reminder of what happens to our country when people look the other way to fraud and subversion of our Constitution. It only gets worse.

First they're handing out birth certificates to foreigners born in foreign countries...then they are allowing people who are not a "natural born Citizen" (as our Constitution requires) to be President and Commander in Chief of our armed forces...and now the communists/marxists/globalists/hate America crowd are trying...with the help of the CCP...to steal our elections. It won't end there.

 

Sun Yat Sen
Born in China in 1866 AND in Hawaii in 1876.
What an amazing feat!
