Reuters: China to widen draft security law to cover space, sea, polar interests
China will add its assets and activities in space, the deep sea and polar regions to its pending national security law, state media said on Wednesday, the latest changes to the sweeping and controversial draft legislation.
President Xi Jinping, who heads a newly established national security commission, has said China's security covers a wide array of areas, including politics, culture, the military, the economy, technology and the environment.
But foreign business groups and diplomats have argued that the draft national security law, which could be adopted after a third reading over the next week by China's top legislative committee, is too broad and vague.

This is very good news perhaps.
Maybe they'll but heads with the Russians.
Or maybe it will discredit them with the denizens inhabiting Foggy Bottom and put some iron into their spine. Even rabbits when cornered may lash out. I am told on occasion rabbits have disemboweled dogs. I find it hard to believe, but that is what i was told.
Those elves making cheap toys are cutting into China's overseas market, that will have to stop. Re education for Santa.
