Any chance of finding a photo of just the fellow without the Chinese flag in the background? I put in some hidden text, mostly recommending more individual quotes at various statements rather than 2-3 collective quotes at the end of a section, particularly when following a direct quotation. Best for BLP purposes if a reviewer can verify info from one source at a time when possible. (When not possible, that's understood as well, of course). Montanabw(talk)16:33, 26 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

I'm fairly certain that he was allowed to pick his own code name and chose "Du Fei" as a play on his middle name is true and I'm looking for a reliable source on it. PumpkinSkytalk09:53, 17 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

According to the article, he was convicted of providing national security information to a foreign power, but I don't see how he had any such information since he was never a US government employee or otherwise in a position to acquire such information. It would be helpful if someone could clarify this.Bill (talk) 05:37, 8 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

The FBI does this too (recruitment of U.S. civilians abroad), and they are extremely aggressive about it - completely uncaring about the safety of U.S. citizens they (the FBI) try to dupe into such dangerous work.
The principal difference between foreign intelligence recruitment and FBI recruitment is the FBI will set the "refusing citizen" up for criminal charges.
