All I can think to say is:
America and the *Free World* had better be prepared for all out assaults
on targets that may not be able to be foreseen.
Ala.Pearl Harbor?!
It seems that China is gearing up for a tech war.If we don't have
countermeasures in play,we'll be squashed.
Just listening in on American transfers to other links seems woefully
insufficient.
But we don't hear from China's IT in this regard.Not like I can call
China's equivalent of the NSA and ask them,'Hey,Any assaults from the
Anericans?
'Be sure,it is of top priority,I hope!

| China], retired army officer Ren Zhengfei is building one of China's most
| successful experiments in capitalism. A mammoth operation with 70,000

that
| its goal is to dominate telecommunications equipment markets all over the
| world.
|
| Its current focus: America.
|
| Fueling [U.S.] lawmakers' unease about the Huawei deal is that no one
knows
| exactly who owns it. Technically, Huawei is a private venture, not
| state-owned. But the company won't reveal information about its
| shareholders except to say it's "100 percent employee-owned," with its
| chief executive owning 1 percent.
|
| Research organization Rand Corp. said that Huawei has "deep ties" with the
| Chinese military. It is not only a customer of Huawei's, Rand said in an
| analysis prepared for the U.S. government, but also was a "political
patron
| and research and development partner."
