The Idiot's Guide To: Stealing American Technology For Fun And Profit..

Mr. Chung became the first person to be tried and convicted
under the Economic Espionage Act, which was
passed more than a decade ago.

So you are an emerging nation and you really don't care about intellectual property, the rule of law or copyright laws; how do you steal Americas best technology secrets?

1.  Have American Universities grant free scholarships to promising spies, err.. candidates.

2.  Have your "Candidates" apply for an H1B visa to work in a top American technology firm

3.  Once your candidate has the targeted technology, have them go on "vacation" back to the original country.

4.  Your candidate will never return to the US, they will run the competing firm in your own country.

Alternate method:

Steal a plane with technology professionals aboard and have them work for you in technology labor camps.
