China hacked NYT computer systems, paper says | ||
2013-02-01 | ||
[FRANCE24] Hackers have infiltrated The New York Times' computer systems in recent months, a move that may be linked to its October exposé of the wealth amassed by relatives of Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao, the paper said Wednesday. China has denied the claims. There's not a day that goes by when somebody's not trying to break into the Burg. The majority of those trying to break down the door are Chinese.
The Journal didn't address how the hacking of its systems occurred, but it said it has faced such threats from China in recent years and denied that attempt stemmed from a desire to "gain commercial advantage or to misappropriate customer information." | ||

#4 "Look - this stuff was rejected by Xinhua as impossible parttisan hackery. Yet the Americans seem to think it has some credibility. I suspect a double-trick, Chin! It's a trap!" |
