Wake

The U.S. indicated the Chinese telecom company Huawei this week, accusing the firm of stealing intellectual property from T-Mobile. That's part of a larger U.S. complaint that China’s economic rise has been aided by the systematic pilfering of trade secrets from abroad and the funneling of that information back to domestic industries. This week on Wake we’ll consider the extent of China’s intellectual property theft, what the can the  U.S. can do about it and whether we’re headed for a "technology cold war." Helping us to do that is this week's guest: Robert Atkinson, founder and president of the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation Peter Harrell, adjunct senior fellow at the Center for a New American Security If you enjoy this discussion, follow Wake on Twitter @WakeOnAir.
