I never said I had evidence, I said it was fair play to speculate all gov do the same, given they lack of morale and fire power.
Which it is.

I suppose it's true that you said "speculate", because one can speculate that the sky is green when you're not looking - speculation doesn't necessarily have anything to do with reality. Fair enough.
That's a hand-wavy redirection that isn't relevant to the issue at hand, which is that:
There is no evidence of the US (and, in fact, many other large countries, with exceptions for e.g. Israel) installing backdoors and breaking into computers in order to steal intellectual property.
There is ample evidence of China doing exactly that, against a variety of targets (not just the US - they've taken things from Japan and the EU, among many others).
I wouldn't be surprised if every nation with a functioning Internet connection tries to put the hac on whatever they can.
But that's not the topic under discussions - the topic is stealing and commercializing IP, for which there is tons of evidence for China doing, and accusations of e.g. the Five-Eyes doing it are rampant speculation with absolutely no evidence included.
Yes, that includes your comment.
