- kchr 8y agoAre you implying that the US are not actively doing the same against nations they see as a threat? It's basically how and why any intelligence service operates - know your enemy and keep up with their technological advances.

- ancorevard 8y agoThe difference is that China has been stealing in order to copy, while the China itself has nothing that the US want to copy. This has been true since the birth of the US. But the future may be different. China is advancing very fast through copying, and years from now we might stop thinking of them as a copycat.

- nabla9 8y agoBecause US is not really condemning spying. It's something what the US does as much as it can. The US has the responsibility to protect its secrets and it failed.
- vkou 8y agoThe US is constantly spying on foreign militaries. I don't see what the problem is, here. We spy on them, they spy on us, life goes on.
