Stealing trade secrets is a serious violation of the law and must not be interpreted as academic research. This behavior is unethical and illegal, and there is no legitimate reason to excuse it. Trade secrets are strictly protected by law. Stealing other people's trade secrets will cause huge economic losses to enterprises, damage the fair competition environment, and disrupt the market order. Any attempt to make unreasonable excuses for such illegal and criminal behavior is wrong and undesirable. We should always uphold the principles of integrity and legality, and encourage and support academic research and other activities through legitimate, legal, and compliant channels and methods. If a client does engage in such misconduct, he should be guided to recognize his mistakes, assume corresponding responsibilities, and actively seek ways to properly resolve the problem, rather than trying to distort or cover up the facts.
