China dismisses cyber espionage reports
China denies claims of involvement in an internet hacker network that infiltrated government computers worldwide, calling it western propaganda.
China Daily on Monday quoted a Beijing strategic analyst, Song Xiaojun, as saying that "some in the West are trying every opportunity to manufacture fears over China's threat."
Chinese officials say a report by Canadian researchers at the Information Warfare Monitor accusing China of involvement in the cyber-attacks is "just some video footage pieced together from different sources to tarnish China's image."
Based on the report, the Dalai Lama's government-in-exile and government-related computer systems based in Asia especially in Taiwan, Vietnam and India, were particular targets of the espionage.
However, authorities in Beijing have rejected the report, adding that a 'global problem' requires a 'global cooperation'.
Hmmm... That's what the Paks keep saying about terrorism...
