WASHINGTON – A major Chinese telecommunications company has been boasting how it was able to hack into U.S. and international telecommunications networks and intercept what it suggested was “malicious” data.

WND has posted some articles of questionable authenticity in the past, but generally, I want to like their site.

Thanks for posting that link. I read the article and it confirmed, again, why I hate seeing "Made in China" on electronic equipment.

From the article

They told WND that’s because while Huawei may consider the data “malicious,” the act of intercepting and extracting data means the Chinese company also could steal sensitive information or even alter the function of computer systems where the company’s products are installed.

That's troubling on many levels.

We deserve exactly what we get,they assemble our products(APPLE)for less cost,then they end up with the latest technology to put to use on other products they claim to develop.......... "Stupid is as stupid does"........ We did a simular thing before WW2,selling steel to Japan to help them build their Zero's........
