Pakdhe Rovicky, Berdasar klarifikasi dari pihak IHS pada acara Lunceon Talk The Jakarta Scout Check Forum 14 July 2010 (pakdhe juga hadir disana). Country Manager IHS pada saat itu menyatakan bahwa "terdakwa" bukanlah employee of IHS.
Sepengetahuan saya, permasalahan inipun bukan merupakan jual beli data, layaknya pakdhe Vicky sebutkan, tidak ada metadata disana yang dibocorkan, toch tidak ada yang rahasia untuk hal metadata yang sesungguhnya adalah rahasia umum. Jika rekan-rekan mencermati kondisi 2002-2007, ada peristiwa menarik disana "China". Inilah yang secara defacto CHINA sangat dirugikan secara PILITIK, dan tentu harus ada yang yang (diper) salahkan, apalagi menyangkut dua Negara disana. Muncullah kasus tersebut. Dengan kata lain, kasus inipun murni kasus PILITIK bukan sebatas pembocoran metadata atau sejenisnya.

China memang sangat ketat dengan data ini. Bahkan data yang ada di public domain (Metadata) juga tidak diperbolehkan di"share" Itulah sebabnya salah satu staff IHS (penyedia data scouting) di China sempat masuk penjara karena menjual data yang di Indonesia sudah public domain. (lihat kutipan beritanya dibawah) Ini adalah buah simala kama ketika banyak orang berteriak tidak adanya akses data di Indonesia, kekhawatiran lain muncul .....Benarkah akses pada data harus dibuka ? RDP === Beritanya di Aljazeera Chinese court imprisons US citizen Geologist Xue Feng, detained in 2007 for "betraying state secrets", loses appeal to get eight-year jail term overturned. Last Modified: 18 Feb 2011 05:26 GMT Feng's case has highlighted the risks of doing business in China for those holding foreign nationalities [GALLO/GETTY] A court in Beijing has upheld the conviction of an American geologist on the charge of betraying state secrets. Xue Feng was arrested in November 2007, and tried to appeal against a conviction that resulted in an eight-year prison sentence handed down in July last year. Jon Huntsman, the US ambassador, attended the hearing on Friday, and urged the Chinese government to release Xue. "We ask the Chinese government to consider an immediate humanitarian release of Xue Feng," he said. "I am extremely disappointed in the outcome when you consider that the charges are very questionable." Xue, a Chinese-born US citizen working for a private firm, was first detained over the sale of a database on China's oil industry. US concerns At the time of Xue's arrest, he was working for IHS Inc., a US energy and engineering consulting firm . Both Xue and IHS have said they believed the database to be a commercially available product. According to the Dui Hua Foundation, a rights group, it was only classified as a state secret after Xue had bought it. The US has repeatedly raised concerns over whether Xue's rights were being protected and whether he had access to a fair trial. The embassy previously said that the case was not handled with the "transparency that would befit a nation which tells us that the rule of law is paramount in all judicial processes". Barack Obama, the US president, has personally raised Xue's case with Hu Jintao, his Chinese counterpart. Xue's arrest and other cases have cast a spotlight on the dangers of doing business in China, especially for those born in China but who have been educated abroad and taken a foreign nationality.
