re: Someone in China just leaked some wild sensitive data stuff on espionage.

Almost a sure thing the NSA/CIA already knew about these 0days but prioritized holding them in their arsenal to attack foreign nations one day, if needed, instead of notifying tech companies about the vulnerabilities.

Taxpayers fund these folks to find or buy these exploits. But then the government guards them in secrecy instead of using the knowledge to safeguard the financial systems, power infrastructure, water treatment facilities, etc relied upon by those same taxpayers.

I think.
