How China used microchips implanted on motherboards to infiltrate US companies

[Stonius (Markus)]

Fair enough. Maybe I'm just a bit jaded. I don't see it as such a leap because of course they would do it if they can, same as we would if we could, but unfortunately, China makes 90% of the world's electronics.

I did think it was interesting that what they were saying about hiding the chips in between the layers of the motherboard. That sure is getting pretty sneaky!!

So it’s ok for the NSA to spy on us but not the PLA.

that's the common view, isn't it, Fahim/Netwolf?
"NSA wouldn't commit theft/industrial espionage so it's bearable what they do. I or We have nothing to hide. "
Forgotten are the January 2014 Snowden revelations that the NSA did indeed snoop around Siemens' and other's data networks.
