This is mostly an American phenomenon. Outsiders tend to look on with bemusement, but it's actually a very serious problem due to America's historical ethical leadership (despite the failures), and their current global influence. Like it or not, their example has far reaching effects the world over. I just hope that they can get out of this polar ideological warfare mindset before it goes too far. They may have lost the moral high ground, but they're still far removed from a rogue state. There's a real danger from Russian cyber campaigns to divide and confuse. These are far more dangerous to national security than the IP theft China engages in. Certain nations would love to help America fall from grace.
