CCP Overwhelms Western Intelligence Agencies With Its 'Mass Collection' Approach: Former CSIS ManagerThe Chinese communist regime employs a “mass collection” approach to subvert its target countries, sending numerous operatives abroad to gradually infiltrate different facets of society, says a former senior manager with the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS).
