China Wants To Have A Permanent Presence In America's Computers

Michael G. McLaughlin William J. Holstein, National Interest: Is China Seeking A Secretive, Permanent Presence in America’s Computers? 

Americans could once rest comfortably in the assumption that they possessed overwhelming technological dominance. But China’s government is working hard to prove them wrong. 

 In the technology battles between the United States and China, the sensational hacks of American information technology systems revealed by the Department of Justice and the controversies over Huawei’s 5G wireless communications technology and TikTok’s video app dominate the headlines. 

But the Chinese government of President Xi Jinping appears to be quietly setting the stage for a more pervasive, ongoing penetration of America’s networks, creating a national security problem that chief executive officers can no longer ignore or minimize. As part of its Digital Silk Road strategy, China is actively pursuing several vectors to achieve outright dominance of the world’s computer systems, including America’s.

For real. All my Chinese contacts ecstatic(!) that Biden won. Or better said they're beyond happy that trump "lost" (no one is declared president yet, but in China they started drinking in the morning hours when those weird vote anomalies appeared/ noon time over there.. they didn't hold back)
