## Summary

According to anonymous sources cited by the New York Times, U.S. intelligence agencies surveilled Megaspeed executive Alice Huang for about a year over possible ties to China. The concern was that she could have gathered information on Nvidia's plans and its efforts to win approval to ship more advanced chips to China. Nvidia denies this, saying Jensen Huang's interactions with her are ordinary customer meetings and that regional cloud customers receive no sensitive information.
