Ya know, the Chinese really aren't our friends...
Just another reason not to buy crap from WalMart.
money quote... "....(China) was behind hundreds of attacks on U.S. companies, focusing increasingly "on companies involved in the critical infrastructure of the United States — its electrical power grid, gas lines and waterworks." Nervous yet?" http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer...y-hackers.html I think sometimes we spend to much time worrying about countries that have little strategic interest to us and not enough time worrying about one that does. |

None of these are valid. I know this as fact. Where did you get this partisan BS?

China only owns about 8% of our debt. Around $1.2 trillion. A lot of money but not enough to dictate a damn thing to us. We got their money. They want it back so they will spend more money to buy farmland? |

Do you realize that you're agreeing with the author?

I really think that Ralph Peters is at least as informed as you are. Leaving aside our efforts to build defenses, I don't have any reason to believe we're doing anything effective given that the cyber attacks continue.

In what reality is the government responsible for patching private business's applications?

BTW the nuclear secrets were stolen under Reagan. Not discovered until the mid 90's. |

I don't think it's up to the government to patch private industry's applications. There's your answer, but it's an irrelevant question.

All of these exploits that have happened are well known. If they had patched in a timely manner, paid more money for additional security and tools it wouldn't have happened. Maybe they will wake the **** up now. The Chinese economy is stalling. There is mumblings of unrest. They need to steal our economic secrets and apply them to their economy to stay ahead of being overthrown by the people. Obama proposed sharing security info with our private business's. The military hasn't been hacked in a long time that wasn't a human error on our side. That if the in place rules were followed, it wouldn't have happened. Private business needs to get to that level of security, human error. But that would entail government regulation, dictates from the black booted geeks of Obama's regime. ![]() |

Why would China do this?
No one buys more of their crap than we do. |

Yes, it's irrelevant. Quit making excuses for the Chinese. It's almost like you prefer having a pretext for more regulation.

Build your own damn missile defense or let us come in and run your business for the benefit of the workers.
