China warns against defamation over Microsoft security breach

[shockedcanadian]

Hackers, covid, building up of artificial islands around their neighbours, Uyghurs, don't defame China and the CCP, they aren't responsible!

They are back to being bold again. The West needs to mine rare minerals and hit China with tariffs.

The Chinese government has warned against using cyber security issues to defame the country, following the hacker attacks on Microsoft software.


Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said in Beijing on Wednesday that he was not aware of the exact circumstances of the attacks.

China has always acted in accordance with the law against hacker activities, he said. At the same time, he said, Beijing is opposed to using cybersecurity issues to slander and defame China.


Microsoft has identified three Chinese hacker groups after the cyberattacks on numerous companies and government agencies, two of which are known for acting on behalf of the state.


The attacks were carried out via a previously unknown vulnerability in Microsoft software, which intelligence agencies often seek out specifically in order to exploit it covertly.


This time, locally operated servers for the Microsoft file-sharing programme SharePoint were affected. Experts say this allows attackers to steal data and passwords or gain permanent access to the systems.


Microsoft has since released updates to fix the security vulnerability.

Trump should send several destroyers and a carrier to dock at Taiwan or just outside those phony islands.

They are coming here with pathogens, funguses to spread across our farms, and bringing in invasive species. If I was queen, there wouldn't be one Chinese in this country. And not one thing that we depend on from China.

So the Microsofties have been outsmarted by Chinese geeks? Sounds to me like it's a problem of hiring incompetents, just like in all our other Diploma Dumbo corporations.

Competition, Not Confrontation

Exactly what led to World War I. Near the end of the 19th Century, the German economy's growth was far better than England's. Instead of changing their economic structure, the status-quo ruling class took steps that would inevitably lead to war.
