Farelf Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Food for thought The Secret China-U.S. Hacking War http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Security/The-Secr...US-Hacking-War/ The curious mismatch between supposed Chinese government oversight and control and the apparently unfettered use of Chinese resources in spamming has been mentioned "here" before. The hacking is on another plane entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showker Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 EXCELLENT... thanks for that one! I've been following the "China" invasion for some time now via Google's news forwarding service -- and the issue is only recently making its way into the main stream media. Statistics abound on how many breach attempts are made each minute which originate in China. 157 out of 776 spams in today's spam traps originated in China, or spamvertised web sites registered or hosted in China and/or the Pacific rim. So it's not just about hacking, or national security -- it's about the huge sums of money being extracted from U.S. citizens each day, shuttled to China via spam and spam related revenue streams. Thanks for that post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
