Is the West planning to follow suit and do what they constantly claim China does with all of their advances ….. copy it for further improved in-house home product development to deliver an overall leading advantage ……. competitive edge …….. market crushing opposition ?
You know, that quite natural human thing that so many pedestrian corporations go crazy about because it so fcuks up their rigged stock and currency market shenanigans with dodgy unstable algorithms trading ?
It would also certainly be different …… New Non Money akin to Flash 0Day Cash …… so a level playing field with everybody at the same starting point.

Re: Good news!
Even if you have not signed the Officials’ Secret Act you can still be prosecuted for breaking it. ….. Flocke Kroes
Oh? Presumably then would one be being prosecuted by an ass, Flocke Kroes. Not a good look for any sort of justice system practising laws, methinks. However, stranger things have surely happened.
And when an abiding human flaw with myriad vulnerabilities for exploitation, something automatically attractive to the intellectually active? 🙂 ……. which is really not something anyone would want to be held responsible and accountable for encouraging and activating whenever it may be catastrophically destructive.

“Unfortunately, we will struggle daily with cybersecurity. The analogy of cat and mouse certainly applies: Detect, prevent, pursue — a never-ending struggle.“
It is wise for one to more realistically accept that the daily struggle with cybersecurity is usually lost, for the very phantom-like nature of the virtual field contested practically guarantees that all one can do is …… try to detect, try to prevent, try to pursue …… although whenever it is reasonably concluded to be all likely in vain, one does have to question the acceptance of the intelligence of the strategy and who and/or what would be benefitting inordinately from it ….. and its deployment in field operations which are both won and lost in the intellectual head space and not down on the ground on Earth. Such is surely what the military does battle against, nowadays, in this new modern age of 0days and RATs [Remote Access Trojans], PACTs [Persistent Advanced Cyber Threats] and NEUKlearer HyperRadioProACTive IT Command and Control Systems.
