China At It Again........

Our good friends in China are back at it again.  No amount of public shaming will stop their state sponsored criminal activities.

“They have stolen product blueprints, manufacturing plans, clinical trial results, pricing documents, negotiation strategies and other proprietary information from more than 100 of Mandiant’s clients, predominantly in the United States.”

“In 2011, it attacked RSA, a maker of data security products used by American government agencies and defense contractors, and used the information it collected from that attack to break into the computer systems of Lockheed Martin, the aerospace contractor.”

“More recently, security experts said, the group took aim at companies with access to the nation’s power grid. Last September, it broke into the Canadian arm of Telvent, now Schneider Electric, which keeps detailed blueprints on more than half the oil and gas pipelines in North America.”

“Other Chinese organizations and scholars cited American and Israeli cyberattacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities as evidence of American hypocrisy.”

(The difference is Iran is not our friend.  China is supposed to be our friend (Wink Wink)  China shakes our hand (smiles) and then steals our wallet.  That is not normal behavior between friendly countries.  We don’t have these issues with England.)

“Jawboning alone won’t work,” Mr. Blair said Saturday. “Something has to change China’s calculus.” 

(When we cut off all trade with China I bet that would change the calculus.  When we start turning away cargo ships trying to dock in California I bet that would get their attention.  Don’t accept any container ships for 30 days and the problem would take care of itself….  Sure corporate America might have a temper tantrum but that would be a good lesson for them as well.)
