Normally I'm all for hiring the best and brightest from all over the world. But with the mission that China seems to be on, I think US startups should be wary of hiring Chinese nationals. Of course they are not all spies. But, it only takes one to fuck your company.

I don't know what the solution is. I don't think companies should flat out stop hiring Chinese nationals, because that's punishes the ones with good intent. But it's clear there is enough danger that you need some plan to take on the risk.
