Yeah, if the U.S.A. is spying on you, it's all good. It's only a problem if somebody else does it.

And as if state sponsored hackers can't act like they are acting independently. I'm not buying this piece of news. It stinks.

Hey if they want to use technology and waste resources monitor away. I am boring and I am sure they will quickly see that and move on. If you are inventing, creating, or trying to be sneaky in anyway do not mix online with the system where your intellectual property is. New car technology is the biggest way of being monitored.

                Too little too late. A company that actually shared personal information of journalists with the Chinese government. They will crack again under pressure.
