    Pshh. I actually wonder how much spying is state sponsored, and how much are simply freelance hackers looking to sell to people that are buying.

    USA has by far the most secrets so obviously it "looks like" its the target. If you have the candy store with the biggest selection of chocolate and bon-bons, of course its going to be targetted more than the guy who sells squid on a stick from his garage. Nobody hacks Haiti.

    Until an actual war happens, Western profits are far too engrained in China for anything else.

    If the USA had spent as much energy building solar panels as they did putting down half ton iron pilings every six inches at the Mexican border, maybe they wouldn't have to complain about China. Respect China, USA went full retard a long time ago.

    Cheap labour is the way to go. Because soon enough they can just replace the repetitive work with robots run on solar power (no jokes).

    USA is heading in the direction of human made bag of lizard skin for $4,000 as an investment because it will cost $40,000 in a couple decades, because noone in the USA will work for less than half a million per year. Which arguably is a way to go, but only if you can find a buyer, and only for as long as people continue wanting it.

    That Buzz is complaining like a Chinese factory worker about low wages, is telling.

    BTW: I'm almost thinking that the burning of documents is fake news. Who actually uses paper for documents anymore? Certainly not the Chinese.

    You could fit the entire patent office on a couple USB drives nowadays. Now pirated porn on the other hand, that would take a significant amount of storage. Stealing Debbie does Dallas takes up a lot of bytes.

    Retaliation: Chengdu US consulate ordered to close

    https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/24/asia/...hnk/index.html

    This is Intel gathering point for Tibet and Western China where the suppressed Muslim population are.

    Now will Trump be desperate enough to escalate further to save the election as COVID shut down is looming all over US again?
