Nvidia chief reportedly targeted by an alleged Chinese spy

US intelligence agencies believe Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang was targeted by Alice Huang, a Singapore-based data centre executive with whom he did business, according to reports citing unnamed sources. The two are not related.

She was earlier suspected of smuggling Nvidia chips to China. Officials reportedly concluded she was acting as a Chinese intelligence asset, passing commercial information to Beijing.
