China is so confident that no consequences will occur, so confident in the West dependence on their manufacturing that they are blatant about it.

It is only a matter of time. Learn Mandarin if you can.


An investigation has revealed suspicious communications devices inside Chinese-made cargo cranes used widely at US ports, supporting fears that the equipment could be part of an espionage plot.

Cranes made by Shanghai Zhenhua Heavy Industries (ZPMC), a state-owned Chinese company, in some cases carry cellular modems, according to a congressional investigation reported by the Wall Street Journal on Thursday.

The modems offer a potential backdoor for remote access, and do not appear to support the normal operations of the equipment, the investigation found.

They aren't wrong.
