Why would anyone think this is limited to crypto companies? Does your employment AI check? China would happily take any intellectual property it could reach.

Here's how North Korean operatives are trying to infiltrate US crypto firms
Devin, the founder of a cryptocurrency startup based in San Francisco, woke up one day in February to the most bizarre phone call of his life.
The man on the other end, an FBI agent, told Devin that the seemingly legitimate software developer he'd hired the previous summer was a North Korean operative who'd sent tens of thousands of dollars of his salary to the country's authoritarian regime.
… Devin's encounter is just one example of what US officials say is a relentless, evolving effort by the North Korean government to infiltrate and steal from cryptocurrency and other tech firms around the world to help fund Kim Jong Un’s illicit nuclear and ballistic weapons program.
Something to watch.
Bowdoin College to offer class on ethics of AI in everyday life
Ethical issues around movie recommendations provided by Netflix and virtual backgrounds offered on Zoom are among the topics that students at Bowdoin College will tackle in a new class on artificial intelligence set to be offered in the fall of 2023.
The AI ethics course marks new intellectual ground for the Brunswick liberal arts school, one of 15 colleges selected through an application process to work with the North Carolina-based National Humanities Center as a part of its Responsible Artificial Intelligence Curriculum Design Project.
… The course will be co-taught by professors from three different disciplines: digital and computational studies, government and philosophy. This interdisciplinary approach, Chown believes, will provide students with a unique and rewarding academic experience.
