News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

First, Lion Air successfully sued Boeing and that’s just from recent high profile memory. I seriously doubt that legitimate lawsuits wouldn’t go through. And regardless, you’re naming two very specific entities. Good luck with any lawsuit for IP theft in China… they’ve pretty much all lost [1], and often the theft is either explicit policy for the gov or the gov itself providing the hacking and supplying their industries for the data. Further keep in mind China is a place where the conviction rate was 99.965% in 2019 and 99.969% in 2018. This is not exactly where you ever want to end up in court.

Is that Chinese IP law being broken or US IP law? I don't know how Chinese IP laws work but of course Chinese should follow Chinese law and Americans American law. Anything else is completely irrelevant.

About Huawei: Getting a fair trial is impossible. The evidence is mostly "three letter agency said so". The US justice system is not going to let Huawei be Innocent until proven guilty. It's not even about courts but straight to Guilty as proven by politics. Cisco is at least as big a danger in any system but they aren't Chinese so that's a different matter. (Look at the massive amount of "accidental backdoors" Cisco keeps churning out for a great example of real danger to network security.)

If you believe hacking is one sided or lopsided I would recommend you read some books about the topic. There are some pretty good ones from former NSA people for example. The fact is the US is by far the one who does the most hacking. No-one should be in doubt of that and I don't think anyone are after Snowden. You just seem to believe that "your" hacking is more okay than theirs. It really isn't. Besides, the NSA and CIA steals trade secrets and IP too as whistleblowers have stated multiple times.
