Chinese Spying Overwhelms Western Governments
14th October 2024
The scale of China’s espionage activities is at an unprecedented scale, sources told The Wall Street Journal.
China has mobilized security agencies, private companies, and Chinese civilians in its espionage activities with the goal of boosting its economy and undermining rival states, the Journal reported.
Last month, the FBI reported a Chinese firm hacked 260,000 internet-connected devices in the U.S., Britain, France, and other countries. Chinese cargo cranes used at U.S. seaports have embedded technology that could allow China to control them, according to a congressional probe.
