Mark Reynolds is a former U.S. counterintelligence officer who spent eleven years briefing tech executives and government agencies on foreign intelligence threats. His new book "Obviously a Spy: The Silicon Valley Dating Survival Guide" reveals how Chinese state intelligence uses long-term romantic relationships and marriage to extract trade secrets from America's most valuable engineers.
In this three-hour conversation, Mark walks through the complete six-phase kill chain of a modern honey trap operation, demonstrates all sixteen relationship stress tests from the book (including the now-viral Camera Test and Guy Fieri USB Drop), presents three real FBI case studies, and lays out the Four Walls personal OPSEC framework.
