Former University of California professor Yi-Chi Shih has been found guilty on 18 federal charges for funneling American military technology to China.
The 64-year-old electrical engineer has been found guilty of handing stolen U.S. military technology to the Chinese government. Now he faces several lifetimes’ worth of time in a federal prison. Shih’s co-defendant, Kiet Ahn Mai, already pleaded guilty to smuggling charges in December 2018.The former Los Angeles professor posed as a customer in order to obtain the “monolithic microwave integrated circuits” (MMICs) used in missiles and aircraft on China’s behalf.

You would think that the dumbasses selling the chips would check more than the credit of their customers
I'm suspicious of this article because the term they refer to (MMIC - monolithic microwave integrated circuits) is a generic term referring to tens of thousands of different components which are generally not export restricted. Hams and hobbyists use them by the shovel full.
The only argument they have going for them is that being news writers, they're not informed well enough to parse those statements and they're regurgitating a press release.
