A CITY in eastern China has been identified as the world capital of cyber-espionage by an American internet security company. Researchers for Symantec found almost 30% of “malicious” emails were sent from China and that 21.3% came from the city of Shaoxing alone. They were able to identify key targets for the hackers as experts in Asian defence policy and human rights activists, strongly suggesting state involvement.

Leave it to the UK papers, again.

I am sure most people suspected Chinas involvement but now it appears they can finally track the hackers back to their home base. To me, just another indicator that the Chinese will be starting something-when it fits them most-and I think that time is quickly coming.

So, what are we gonna do about it? Nothing I am sure.
