Konnech CEO Eugene Yu’s Connection to China’s National People’s Congress & Chinese Telecom Giants
“Eugene Yu, the CEO of the U.S. election software company Konnech, was arrested yesterday in connection to the storage of election data on Chinese servers.
He was arrested in Michigan by investigators from the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office with assistance from the Meridian Township Police Department.
Investigators allegedly found U.S. poll workers’ information stored on servers in the People’s Republic of China.
The day before Yu’s arrest, the New York Times’ Stuart Thompson published an article entitled, ‘How a Tiny Elections Company Became a Conspiracy Theory Target.’
Thompson, who covers ‘misinformation and disinformation,’ wrote about how ‘far-right election deniers’ concocted an elaborate ‘conspiracy theory’ that Konnech ‘had secret ties to the Chinese Communist Party and had given the Chinese government backdoor access to personal data’.”
