I know of two very large cyber espionage incidents that can be traced to individuals in China. It may or may not be government sanctioned, but the evidence that it is is somewhat compelling. For one, the hackers only work during business hours. Secondly, the tools used had a very specific signature of state sponsored espionage.

  I was stating the statement about the trend was incorrect. Factual statements isn't throwing stones. The "Peaceful Rise" propaganda/party line really did stop awhile ago.
