Do you even understand how software works? The software remains property of the company and the company keeps using and profiting from it. I don't. No harm done. I am not using this code for anything but refreshing my memory about the things I've done. "permanently taking something without permission or the intention to return it" clearly refers to something material. You are just about one step away from allowing the companies to erase the memory of the employees leaving them.

Was the code flagged as proprietary information by your employer?
Never heard of such thing. Although it may simply mean that they all assume it by default. In any case, it is obviously possible for one to use the code one developed in unlawful ways: for example to use it wholesale to create a competing commercial product. I am not talking about such scenarios.

Understand, fwiw many larger corporations (especially Defense) will require that even code be marked as appropriate (not just email or documents) - export controlled, proprietary information, financial markings, etc. (of course how the markings are included and audited differ by company).
Copying code marked proprietary, even for "personal use" would be a clear legal problem for the individual who left work with the code.
Also, from the article: "In a statement, the Taiwan prosecutors' intellectual property branch said Lo is suspected of violating Taiwan's National Security Act." Taiwan invoking National Security Act to persecute US citizen (I assume he is) might backfire, especially with current US administration.
"After Taiwan is liberated". LOL. you keep posting shit like this. Does this give you any credibility on the subject at hand?
That’s one point of view. But what about the people here who say that most people in Taiwan would support independence—given that the large-scale recalls of KMT-elected officials ended in a major failure? Do they call their own views “shit,” then?
If Taiwan doesn’t have the capability to defend itself, it should stop pretending and dragging other countries into the mess.
The nuclear argument is somewhat valid, given the recent actions of the Japanese leadership.

No. The software code is company's assets.
You can rewrite it in new company, but not copy it with you.
Anybody remembers the high-profile case Goldman Sachs vs Sergey Aleynikov decade ago? You bragged it because none caught you yet. I do not know what kind of companies you worked with before. Do you dare say the same thing here to your managements and HRs- coping all the codes and maybe data, too? You have been lucky. Go Back to read the documents you signed with HR on day 1.
It will be clear once the depositions/discovery start. My guess is that this will all be settled behind closed doors. I have said it before, you do not want to do battle with CC Wei.
Firstly, Sergey Aleynikov was acquitted on all or almost all counts (on appeal). Secondly, he copied the code that he did not write. He copied the code used by Goldman Sachs for high speed trading just before he left for a competing company. One can understand the sensitivity. This has nothing in common with what I do. Thirdly, what happened to common sense and personal integrity? If you were to insist on following every letter of what we sign, there would not be any employees left, and, similarly, all companies should be sued into oblivion. You are also inventing accusations here. I am not copying all the codes and any data. The only excuse for your baseless accusations could be that you have no idea about software design.

Well, you are certainly wise to be publishing your confessions under an alias. If I were doing this sort of thing, I certainly would not be publicising the fact.
I think you'll find that people round here do know quite a lot about software. You assume too much.
