Former US Marine pilot arrested in Australia worked with Chinese hacker, lawyer says ( www.reuters.com )

A former U.S. Marine pilot fighting extradition from Australia on U.S. charges of training Chinese military pilots to land on aircraft carriers, unknowingly worked with a Chinese hacker, his lawyer said.

Daniel Duggan, 55, a naturalised Australian citizen, feared requests by Western intelligence agencies for sensitive information were putting his family at risk, the lawyer said in a legal filing seen by Reuters.

The lawyer's filing supports Reuters reporting linking Duggan to convicted Chinese defence hacker Su Bin.

Duggan denies the allegations that he broke U.S. arms control laws. He has been in an Australian maximum security prison since his 2022 arrest after returning from six years working in Beijing.

Here's the non paywall archived article. It's an update to a Reuters article from last year.

    Wat?

    aodhsishaj ,

    Cosmic is a sunshine troll who reports comments he doesn't agree with for being uncivil.

    I got fed up with him for constantly complaining about paywalls, went so far as to give him an archived link of both the original article and the update, and it still wasn't enough.

    Then he goaded me into flaming him, I took the bait, he reported my comments and got most taken down. Then after I posted the archive link again with how and where to donate he tried to glad hand my comment, all the while he never looked for the article himself on archive.is nor archive.org. Because "paywall links are beyond the pale"!

    Thus the moniker of him being a sunshine troll.

    Now I'll patiently wait for this comment to be removed as well.

    Thanks for being willing to take time out of your day to enlighten me

    Seriously, stop bitching about paywalls and use just the slightest bit of research.

    The onus is not on me to go do extra work to be able to read the article, it's up to the person making the post to make sure the article's readable by all, or to include the link to a non-paywalled version in the summary.

    My goal is to bring awareness for paywalls and trying to get them to not be used. They should not be promoted here on Lemmy.

    Here’s the reuters article from a year ago https://archive.is/er7Ws

    That's not even for the same article, and as you stated, a year out of date.

    😭

    "Blaming the victim" is not a good look.

    Paywalls are bad.

    Also lots of independent journalism is dying because people aren’t paying for it.

    I pay for it. I donate to independent journalism. 🤷‍♂️

    Point to me on the doll where you were hurt.

    Lol victim, I gave you the full article, you're not a victim you're lazy and cheap.

    Either find the article on an archive site, or pay for quality journalism. It sucks I know, capitalism has turned news into a profit model that only truly benefits the rich. We're all victims of capitalist greed. But don't spread your learned helplessness. Offer solutions and critique so we can all be better.

    Or bitch that you're not spoonfed. One or the other, you're free to fuck up your own life how you see fit.

    .... I'm still chuckling about your victimhood. Give me free labor without commensurate compensation.

    aodhsishaj , (edited )

    Ha! You reported me for being uncivil? You truly are a victim.

    Posting the archive.is link here so others can view it as you still refuse to do.

    There is no such onus. If you don't want to go through a paywall, feel free to find an alternate source.

    There is no such onus. If you don’t want to go through a paywall, feel free to find an alternate source.

    Again, not my job to find an alternative source. If someone is posting about an article, the article should be readable, and not be behind a paywall. Don't waste people's time posting news about articles that they cannot read, because its behind a paywall.

    Or maybe mark them as such, as part of the title, at the very least, so that someone can not bother to click on the post link if they know they can't get to the article that the post is about because its behind a paywall. Or supply an alternative non-paywalled link as part of the summary.

    That's the onus I'm speaking of, being able to actually get to the article the post is talking about. Don't waste another's time.
