    The problem is the Wolf Amendment, a 2011 law that requires the FBI to review any scientific cooperation with China to assure that no sensitive national security information is leaked.

          The whack and double-whack theories still have issues to resolve. People tend to prefer them to “don’t know” or “other” but they shouldn’t be called 100% true.
