Top China editor slams school for ousting woman for casual sex, demands equal penalty for man
The backlash follows the expulsion of a 21-year-old Chinese student, surnamed Li, after her alleged sexual involvement with a Ukrainian gamer.
Li reportedly had a one-night stand with a 37-year-old Ukrainian ex-Counter-Strike player, Danylo Teslenko, known as 'Zeus', while he was in Shanghai for an event last December.
Teslenko shared their intimate photos and videos in his fan group, which later spread online.

Some reports claimed he was married with children and had called Li an 'easy girl', though he denied both claims.

Donald Trump and Xi Jinping tipped to meet ahead of or during Apec summit in South Korea
This year's Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in South Korea is probably the best opportunity for Xi Jinping and Donald Trump to meet in person this year, multiple sources have said. They said Trump might visit China before going to the Apec summit between October 30 and November 1, or he could meet his Chinese counterpart on the sidelines of the Apec event. According to South Korean media reports, Xi plans to attend the event in Gyeongju, but Trump's participation is yet to be confirmed. Earlier this month Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio had their first face-to-face meeting – a potentially important step towards the two presidents meeting. Meanwhile, in a phone call last month, Xi invited Trump and his wife to visit China, an invitation the US president reciprocated. Rubio told reporters after meeting Wang that there was a 'strong desire on both sides' for a meeting between the two presidents. US-China relations have fluctuated since Trump returned to the White House in late January and threatened heavy tariffs of up to 145 per cent on Chinese goods. Since then, however, both sides have worked to stabilise relations, agreeing on a preliminary trade deal that eases China's rare-earth export restrictions and US technology trade barriers.

The future of surveillance tech is already here – in the US, not China
Out of story ideas about China? One default topic for Western hacks is to warn against the repressive nature of China's pervasive 'hi-tech' public surveillance. But a recent one in The New York Times takes the cake. Forgive the long quote, but it helps to fill up column space. It's also necessary to show the person's pathos or value system. I don't know. But here goes: 'I heard some surprising refrains on my recent travels through China. 'Leave your bags here,' a Chinese acquaintance or tour guide would suggest when I ducked off the streets into a public bathroom. 'Don't worry,' they'd say and shrug when I temporarily lost sight of my young son in the crowds. 'The explanation always followed: 'Nobody will do anything,' they'd say knowingly. Or: 'There's no crime.' And then, always: 'There are so many cameras!' I couldn't imagine such blasé faith in public safety back when I last lived in China, in 2013, but on this visit it was true: Cameras gawked from poles, flashed as we drove through intersections, lingered on faces as we passed through stations or shops.' The writer, an American, is troubled. 'I felt that I'd gotten a taste of our own American future,' she wrote. 'Wasn't this, after all, the logical endpoint of an evolution already under way in America?' Oh dear! In fact, high-resolution public security cameras with facial recognition features are so yesterday's tech. The Times article is titled, 'Can we see our future in China's cameras?' Well, no, lady, you want to see your future, go back to your own country.

US government worker, target of exit ban, prevented from leaving China for months
An American citizen who works for the US government has been blocked from leaving China for months, possibly on national security grounds, after travelling there recently, the South China Morning Post has learned. A source familiar with the matter said that a naturalised US citizen, originally from China, was detained by authorities upon landing in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, in April. The individual, who previously served in the US Army, works for the US Commerce Department's Patent and Trademark Office, but he had been on a personal trip to visit relatives. His wife is believed to live in the US. The Post is withholding his name out of concern for his safety and privacy while he remains in China. The Washington Post, reporting on the same incident and citing people familiar, said the employee was being held for failing to disclose on his visa application that he worked for the US government. Since being held in Chengdu, he has travelled to Beijing, accompanied by a US official, though his current whereabouts are unknown. At one point, according to the source, the individual's US passport was taken from him, but it has since been returned.
