What happened

US intelligence agencies believe a Chinese spy targeted Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, according to a New York Times report.

The woman in question, Alice Huang, is an executive at the Singapore-based data center company Megaspeed and has no relation to him.

Nvidia said his contact with her was routine because he speaks with thousands of customers a year, and that customers get no trade secrets or national security information.

Engadget, citing the Times, reported that Donald Trump was briefed a year ago and took no action, and that Jensen Huang never received a defensive briefing.

“The diversion allegations against this regional cloud were thoroughly investigated and debunked last year”
