🚨🇨🇳 BREAKING: MICROSOFT USED CHINA-BASED ENGINEERS ON U.S. MILITARY SYSTEMS
Microsoft let engineers in China help maintain cloud systems for the Department of Defense - and called it secure because they had “digital escorts” watching.
Those escorts were Americans with security clearances, but many didn’t even understand the tech they were supposed to monitor.
A ProPublica investigation exposed the whole thing, calling out how little oversight or expertise was actually in place.
The Pentagon flipped out.
Secretary Hegseth slammed it:
“Foreign engineers - from any country, including of course China - should NEVER be allowed to maintain or access DoD systems.”
Microsoft is now backpedaling, promising China-based engineers are out of all U.S. military cloud work.
For a company with a $X trillion market cap, it’s wild that “maybe don’t let China work on Pentagon servers” had to be explained.
