GitHub has the protection of the US Government, which has a vested interest in fighting the precedent that Chinese attackers are setting here.

- moe 12y agoGitHub has the protection of the US Government, which has a vested interest in fighting the precedent that Chinese attackers are setting here. Why would the US Government be concerned about "chinese attackers" that apparently can't even take out a civilian top100 website? Interestingly, this also gives China more bargaining power in its negotiations with the US about "cyber" issues You mean they will offer to stop "pretend attacking" american companies, and the US will then make concessions out of gratitude?
