Experts Closing In On Google Attack Coders
ancientribe writes "The targeted attacks out of China that hit Google, Adobe, and other US organizations are still ongoing and have affected many more companies than the original 20 to 30 reported. Security experts now say they are getting closer to identifying the author or authors of the malware used to breach Google and other organizations."
Sounds to me like you're the propaganda machine here. There is nothing new or shocking about U.S. export laws preventing companies like google from offering certain types of services or software to certain countries.
As soon as the United States identifies the culprits in China...wow are they in trouble.

rediculous.
Apparently you're too stupid to read the article YOU linked. They are not permitted to allow countries like Syria and Iran to download their apps to comply with US law. Given that they're a US based company, what the fuck do you expect them to do?
You need to work a lot harder than that to prove propaganda.
Are agnostics skeptical of unicorns too?
The US media, however, is eager to twist the story.
It would seem not, as you linked to PBS, a news outlet funded by the U.S. Government. LOL

Why should they bother with the hassle of getting an exemption? More importantly, how does the fact that they do not have an exemption make them part of some government propaganda machine?
Oh, and Chrome runs on Linux and OS-X. Not sure where you get the notion that it's Windows only.
The only thing that doesn't hold water here is your argument.

For a long time it looked like William Gibson had the wrong view of the future with the Sprawl series. But now we have duelling Russian botnets which fight for exploited systems and AI captcha crackers. Major corporations base their income on the reduction and on-sale of found information. Infrastructure is increasingly dependent on information technology, and likely to be connected to the Internet.
Science fiction writers tend to over estimate short term progress and under estimate long term progress. I think Neuromancer is coming back.
The charge? Conspiracy to augment an artificial intelligence..

*Chromium* runs on Linux. Chrome doesn't exist for Linux.
