Basically the rules of the game are there are no rules. Whoever can steal anyone's secrets does and probably should or risk being left behind. China plays by these rules, it's about time that everyone else wisen up to this and accept it as the real state of affairs outside of rhetoric and propaganda.



Ok so next US officials accuse the Chinese of spying based on some very shaky evidence we can just all collectively tell them to stop whining right?


yup. or even very concrete evidence. or pretty much any other country. one strategy the US employs in all of its dealings is holier than thou. As Chomsky says, never listen to what the US says, always look at their actions. They never match what they say.


> China plays by these rules, it about time that everyone else wisen up to this.

Are you aware that this story is about the US, right?


Obviously. I meant in addition China also plays by these rules.


You're being sarcastic, right?
