The Clinton administration and CIA tried to deny the China-Boeing technology transfer incident. But others in the CIA were concerned, raised the issue and were later proven right.
I asked people in the CIA about the Bloomberg story and their response seemed to indicate that the story is real.
There’s immense pressure to deny this story for several reasons.

- ColanR 8y agoNote that's a new account...I assume the answer to your question is no.
- jackconnor 8y agoThere's zero evidence at all, none, not one example of any of these hacked devices, it's all "someone I know seems to think this story could be real" which is propelling this whole BS forward based on stupid rumors and hearsay rather than actually evidence. Let's hold ourselves to a higher standards here.
- ddebernardy 8y ago> I asked people in the CIA about the Bloomberg story and their response seemed to indicate that the story is real. Like the Bloomberg article, your comment is unsourced - or anonymously so, which is only an infinitesimally larger notch better. (But I presume you were merely being sarcastic; or trolling.)

- rohit2412 8y agoI think this is the Boeing incident the above comment is talking about. https://www.wired.com/story/us-china-cybertheft-su-bin/ https://www.wired.com/story/us-china-cybertheft-su-bin/ I wondered why the United States does not care about such state sponsored violations of intellectual property, going as far as to deny the crime.
- asdfasgasdgasdg 8y agoMan, I asked people in the CIA and they said it was false! I also talked to my people at the NSA and they said they've never heard of you.
- jimmydef 8y agoA hardware hack like this is extremely easy to verify. If it is indeed true, just produce the hard evidence and be done with it. The fact that they have not been able to do so makes the story just unbelievable.
