Ever wonder what the Pentagon of the 50's would think about this...
"A new report from the Pentagon marked the most explicit statement yet from the United States that it believes China's cyber espionage
is focused on the U.S. government, as well as American corporations.
China kept up a steady campaign of hacking in 2012 that included
attempts to target U.S. government computer networks, which could
provide Beijing a better insight into America's policy deliberations and
military capabilities, according to the Pentagon's annual assessment of
China's military. 'China is using its computer network exploitation
capability to support intelligence collection against the U.S.
diplomatic, economic, and defense industrial base sectors that support
U.S. national defense programs,' said the report to Congress
(PDF). The digital espionage was part of a broader industrial espionage
effort that seeks to secure military-related U.S. and Western
technology, allowing Beijing to scale back its reliance on foreign arms
manufacturers, the report said. One day later, Beijing dismissed the Pentagon's report that accused it of widespread cyberspying on the U.S. government, rejecting it as an 'irresponsible' attempt to drum up fear of China as a military threat."
