> I work for a western studio for which Tencent is a majority shareholder, and I can tell you, Tencent hasn't even hinted at wanting any of our data, let harvesting more.

How would you know if they did? Most employees have zero interactions with their employer's investors.

Because I am the CTO of the company, and because the only interaction Tencent has with our company are during it's board meetings, which I am also a member of.

Nice comeback :)

The person who asked should have looked at your profile.

Awww, right in his face, that's cruial!

The only interaction you know about.

I was working for a telco hardware and software manufacturer and I remember when about 15 years ago, I was the QA, who was sent to China with an engineer to implement "a feature" onsite (yes it was a backdoor). Everybody could guessed in my team, why are we were sent there. Also worked at a cinema control software company and we had to implement the same feature.

So yeah, it only take one engineer to implement a feature. (or a bug)

> Everybody could guessed in my team

So pretty widely known.

Yeah, because we did not gave a shit about the NDA we had to sign.

And your CTO didn't know about your trip abroad? Seems highly unlikely.

The CTO of the company probably was not even aware that we were working for the company.

It has only been less than a year since then though...

Also hello from NZ :)

And you could have mentioned that fact in your original post. This just reads like you baited someone into what was a reasonable response. I'm not sure why that'd be necessary so maybe it was entirely unintentional on your part.

Congrats on the recent PS4 release! I’ve been a fan of PoE since closed beta.
