Technology stealing and hacker Peoples oppression Army in China get taste of their own medicine
EIJING: Beijing branded a new US spending bill barring government purchases of Chinese-made technology “biased” on Thursday, after the two powers clashed over accusations of cyber-hacking.
The bill, signed Tuesday by President Barack Obama, blocked government buying of information technology equipment “produced, manufactured or assembled” by firms “owned, directed or subsidised by the People’s Republic of China”. Federal government agencies could buy IT products from China if they passed an official assessment of risks involving “cyber-espionage or sabotage associated with the acquisition of such system”, the bill said. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei hit out at the measure at a regular press briefing, saying it “adopts a biased attitude towards Chinese enterprises under the pretext of information security”.
The bill “is not conducive to the development of China-US relations,” he added. afp
