If a burglar robs your house and steals a gun it’s your duty to report that it was stolen.
- FPGAhacker 8y agoNot necessarily to the public though. Perhaps a more apt analogy would be your house is burgled while you are away, do the authorities have an obligation to tell everyone in the neighborhood or just you?
- gota 8y agoDid the burglarized house contain copies of the keys of all their neighbors? We're abusing the metaphor by now, but there's clear interest of the clients of the companies in the matter...
- piva00 8y agoAbusing the analogy: instead of a house you have apartments and the burglar broke in to the building and now might have access to the other tenants' homes, don't you have to report that to the landlord, police AND your neighbors?
- Thaxll 8y agoNot every hack are related to your personal data.
- jostmey 8y agoStill, are you going to place a majority of the blame on the victim or the burglar? It would seem that a majority of the blame lies with China if the allegations are true (I suspect they are)
- Vektorweg 8y agoIt is basically impossible to track the source of a hack. China might just as likely never had anything to do with any attack so far.
- lenkite 8y agoOnly to law-enforcement. Not to the public.
