Allegations have emerged linking Nvidia's chief executive Jensen Huang with a woman accused by U.S. authorities of serving Chinese intelligence. Washington claims the woman was acting as an operative for Beijing. The purported relationship has revived discussion of the so‑called “honey trap” technique. A honey trap refers to the use of intimacy, seduction or blackmail to obtain information or sway decisions. Critics say the case illustrates lingering fears about corporate espionage involving technology firms. Observers note that such tactics have historical precedent in intelligence operations.
