EVERYTHING I AM

 

In China, hacking has become a culturally accepted phenomenon, openly discussed at trade shows. Companies vowing for government contracts boast, “We can physically locate anyone who spreads a rumor on the Internet,” said a salesman whose company’s services include monitoring online postings and pinpointing who has been saying what about whom.

Per the NYTimes:

The culture of hacking in China is not confined to top-secret military compounds where hackers carry out orders to pilfer data from foreign governments and corporations. Hacking thrives across official, corporate and criminal worlds. Whether it is used to break into private networks, track online dissent back to its source or steal trade secrets, hacking is openly discussed and even promoted at trade shows, inside university classrooms and on Internet forums.
