I think I agree with this call as it pertains to the case.

Huang has maintained his innocence and is currently free on bail.

If the data he had access to was so sensitive that it can't be disclosed in a closed court then what in fuck is this guy doing out on bail??????

Because he's innocent until proven guilty?

Just because he had the data isn't proof he was going to sell it. The data might still be classified though.

Exactly. Bail is only about flight risk and/or potential threat to the public from the alleged offender going free. The sensitivity of the data he’s alleged to have accessed has nothing to do with either of these. Denying bail isn’t a way to “pre-punish’ someone who hasn’t yet been convicted of anything
