    From TFA:

    "U.S. corporations are vulnerable, too, he said, because China sees nothing wrong with committing economic espionage in the service of Chinese companies, many of which are state-owned anyway. Of course, the U.S. and other countries spy on each other all the time, but the U.S. would never spy on Toyota and share that intelligence with General Motors, for example. China, on the other hand, has no such qualms."
