What do you base this off? Do people really think they know what governments are capable of these days?

That is the most absurd thing I have ever heard. The US is like 5x ahead of everybody in cyber warfare. China don't have shite compared to what the US does in this category. We invented computers not China dude.

@swinesucker

Inventing something doesn't mean you are infinitely ahead of the curve, blink and its already been improved and adapted by someone else.

Apple introduce the touchscreen phone to the masses, in my eyes HTC and Samsung are now panning them by developing the idea further.

Take a look at the games console market over the past hmmmm 20-25 years. One thing I can tell you, it wasn't the US developing the leading consoles. F*ck, they didn't even enter the market till a few years ago.

With a blind comment like that you MUST be American.

So are you saying that chine can bully USA whenever they want to?..

Just asking..

To go to war over a terrain satellite would make no sense. I'm pretty sure they do wrong to each other ALL the time in different ways. Plus with the US recently pulling out of wars in Iraq and other countries (and given the massive debt crisis), it wouldn't make the best of sense. Only if there was a very serious threat would they decide to go to war. I can't speak about the Chinese' state of defenses, but right now they have the money to fund a war...

the us always have money for war but not for a nhs. It's quite disheartening that people there have to pay thousands of dollars for care(some surgeries can cost over a 100k)

This kind of hacking is not going to go away, it is going to get worse as they probe United States defences and see just how far they can push the USA before some sort of action is taken.

The Chinese forces are incomplete, they still lack a blue water navy to project power. However this is being built with a view that China is almost certainly the next military superpower. By 2016 China could have 2 new heavy carriers in operation to go along with the newly refitted heavy ex-soviet carrier they now possess that will probably enter service sometime next year. This could cause a major interruption in the way the United States projects its power around Taiwanese waters.

Almost certainly going to cause problems as it should. We really have no business over there.
