Search-result excerpt only (full page not fetched). Summarizes the NYT Oct. 29 report: anonymous people briefed on surveillance; Alice Huang (Huang Le) former top executive at Megaspeed; Trump briefed ~a year earlier; Huang got no defensive briefing; unmasking identified Jensen Huang; Nvidia (John Rizzo) says its own investigation found no diversion. Headline frames the NYT's account as Trump ignoring intel "to protect company's stock" — that framing is the outlet's summary of NYT reporting, not an established fact.
