Microsoft failed to warn victims of Chinese email hack: former employees
http://www.reuters.com/article/us-microsoft-china-insight-idUSKBN0UE01Z20160101
Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O) experts concluded several years ago that
Chinese authorities had hacked into more than a thousand Hotmail
email accounts, targeting international leaders of China's
Tibetan and Uighur minorities in particular - but it decided not
to tell the victims, allowing the hackers to continue their
campaign, according to former employees of the company.
