They're also saying that the Chinese have hacked various critical US infrastructure such as the Federal Reserve. May be something to keep an eye on. The Chicoms are getting froggy.

It's always evolving. As better security measures are implemented, hackers get better too. It's the nature of computer science.

The problem with these things is we have no idea if the intel agencies are lying to us to gin up the case for war or whatever it is they want. At least they didn't blame Iran.

This can be said of literally everything you hear. Cute how you imply that the Iranians are somehow more trustworthy than our own government.

Yeah, I'd say the war is having an impact on them.

Funny, the only thing you'll get out of a Democrat regarding China right now is -- 'It's all Trump's fault ... Reeeee'.

I agree. China was issuing threats just yesterday. Time to turn the screws on them. And before Bunk rides in to the rescue of more totalitarian governments, no, I'm not saying we should go to war with them.

I would say it's an exclamation point after their Iran communique.

Years of chips and tech originating from China. Honestly surprised they haven't done more.

A couple reasons. 1) they still need information to move in and out. 2) true air gapped systems are extremely difficult to maintain.
