    Seems a stretch of rico definition but ok…. I could see ip theft being more accurate but China has proven repeatedly that it won’t do anything about that practice

      How so? It seems to fit perfectly? And it notes that they are using RICO specifically because of the company’s “byzantine” structure–it gives them more flexibility.

        Splitting your assets into multiple subsidiary companies to limit liability isn’t organized crime, it’s standard corporate operations, everyone does it.

    This guy is a China shill. Review his post and comment history. He’s spamming all the news communities with stuff like this.

        From one of this own comments.

        Islamophobic and Sinophobic bigot does bigoted things.

        你个狗屁 白痴 请删除您的帐户

        Translation: “You piece of shit! Idiot! Please delete your account.”

        Now as to this one in particular, it seems like it can be chalked up as either he doesn’t read beyond headlines or he’s just plain incompetent.
