Eugene Yu was required to keep his company’s data in the United States but instead allegedly stored it on servers in the People’s Republic of China.
The CEO of a software company that tracks the behavior of US election workers was arrested Tuesday over suspicion of stealing personal information and illegally storing it on Chinese computer servers.
Yu, 51, was arrested in Michigan and held on suspicion of theft of personal identifying information, while computer hard drives and other “digital evidence” were seized by investigators from the LA district attorney’s office, according to the office. The DA’s office didn’t specify what specific information allegedly was taken, but officials said it only involved poll workers, not voting machines or vote counts and didn’t alter election results.
