This document appears to be a page from a book (likely by Edward Jay Epstein given the filename) included in a House Oversight investigation. The text details the pervasive surveillance capabilities of Chinese intelligence in Hong Kong around 2013, noting that the U.S. State Department required personnel to use altered phones to avoid data theft. It argues that Edward Snowden, having arrived in May 2013 with NSA secrets, would have been aware of these capabilities and relied on the Chinese presence to protect him from the CIA.
