Abdulrahman Alfozan

Case file Abdulrahman Alfozan, reference D C zero two one four. According to the Justice Department, Abdulrahman Alfozan had been employed as an engineer by OpenAI since July twenty twenty-five. The Justice Department said a complaint alleges OpenAI determined that a recording device was installed on or about September twenty-eighth, twenty twenty-six, in an executive conference room in San Francisco; that allegation is unproven. According to the Justice Department, OpenAI personnel found a surreptitious audio recording device in a USB port on the back of a television on September thirtieth. The Justice Department said Alfozan, thirty-five, a Saudi national, was arrested on October ninth on a charge of using or endeavoring to use a device to intercept oral communications. It said he appeared in federal court on October thirteenth and was in federal custody. AP reported that on October nineteenth, a federal judge denied a defense request for home confinement.
