So every developing nation steals technology, it's how they grow, the US did the same to the UK during the industrial revolution which is how the US got most of their textile technology. Most developed nations know this and somewhat look the other way while a nation is developing. The modern problem is that China has hit the cusp of no longer being developing but rather is developed. Which changes the dynamic, the relationship and the expectations for what is allowed and how procedures will go. China seems to be trying to have their cake and eat it too though, they pad their numbers to look good but then decry when they are treated as if those are facts and they are held to a higher standard. It's like a middle aged man asking for leniency because "boys will be boys".
