And NSA worked with Canada to penetrate a Brazilian oil company, which Snowden leaked

There was also inferences that they penetrated Huawei.

Petrobas is state-owned.

I might be willing to give you Huawei if you cite a source. They're a gray area (by design) due to China's strategy of military-civil fusion.

Dude you're replying to a comment that's replying to a comment with a source for what you're asking. I'm not sure why you want it to be the case that the US' cyber warfare capabilities are worse than competing nations but Snowden et al made it pretty clear that we're even invading the privacy of our allies and our own citizens. America is going to be fine we're perfectly capable of hacking foreign private enterprises to protect our interests

I don't know German but nothing on that translated page says anything about hacking or attacking.

Allow me to translate: "According to the new revelations, however, contracts for French companies have apparently been intercepted by US secret services for years"

Given hacking means unauthorized access to data, can you explain how intercepting confidential documents in an unauthorized manner could not possibly meet the definition?

Additionally, we know much more detail on Siemens, including the planting of malicious code, which absolutely meets any definition of hacking. [1]
