#62IEEE is registered in USA, so it has to follow the USA's law and rules, so I think it's not an issue of IEEE but an issue of BIS, please try to figure out that.

I don't think anyone here is saying China is perfect or that this is the worst thing to ever happen. People are just pointing out this is a ridiculous situation.
Anyway, we can be worried about something and still consider another thing despicable.

#65The Chinese steal our Intellectual Property. They must be punished.
Industrial espionage is a thing most developed countries do, including the US.
What makes China so special is that it's actually gaining enough economic power to make the US go at economic war with them.

It is an issue of IEEE. It shouldn't be registered in USA. Switzerland is much better.

Google Scholar or Wikipedia websites has been banned in China for a decade, Do you think this is ridiculous?
No, that's not great either. That's the Chinese gov wanting to block knowledge from outside about political events, probably. This is something worse though in my opinion, since it actively halts innovation standardization which shouldn't have anything to do with politics.
With all due respect to academics, banning political opposition is far worse. Freedom is more important than new IEEE standards.

#69This is just ridiculous. This goes way beyond what they originally intended with stopping suspected IP Theft or backdoors by Huawei. This is a black day for academic progress and research in general.

...I have to say, we can log into Google Scholar and Wikipedia in China. I even donated once for Wikipedia.

Are you challenging the fact that the U.S.S.R. had extensive espionage networks in the U.S. during the 1950s, including the Rosenbergs who were in fact guilty of spying for the Soviet Union? McCarthysim per se was horrible, but the fact remains that the Red Scare was grounded in historical truth. https://www.amazon.com/Venona-Decoding-Espionage-America-Com... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_and_Ethel_Rosenberg
If you hunt witches, there will always be witches to burn. If you try hard enough, any American can be a USSR spy.
What am I not stating clearly?
Witch hunts are bad, but yes, there was a large spy network. Perhaps it could have even been uprooted with measured counter-intelligence, instead of McCarthyism.
