Obviously a story planted by the CIA to further demonize the Chinese government.
Why, you ask... here are a few obvious reasons that come screaming out of the page.
1. Of all the thousands of offices and business's affected by the "worm" it was the good ole CIA's number one buddy the Dali lama and his office employees that alert the security firm to a possible incursion happening... Total nonsense.
2. With such a sophisticated worm being created the Chinese didn't have the where with all to hide the fact that it was all originating from Chinese servers... Total nonsense.
3. No American servers were affected. The Chinese apparently are foiled when it comes to infiltrating any American servers... Total nonsense.
"pollution is so bad in most of China you cannot see the sun most of the time" HOW CAN SUCH AN OBVIOUSLY WRONG STATEMENT ON SO MANY LEVELS RATE A '5' . Slashdot - the new haven for the redneck nerd!
The reason Beijing has the smog it does is because it's surrounded by mountains you cretin! I know, I've been there and witnessed it first hand... hey guess what you get past the mountains and there's clear blue sky... Go figure!
Stop spreading this hate slashdotzz!
Your comment just proves how clueless you are about the spam situation in China.
China is, and has been for several years, a bastion of "bulletproof" hosting. Since you're so clueless about spam, I probably have to explain bulletproof hosting. Bulletproof hosting is a contract with a hosting provider and/or ISP with IP space to burn that doesn't care what you do with that hosting/IP space so long as you pay your bills.
China is also a haven of phishing sites, largely for the same reason and courtesy of a few rogue registrars operating in China.
There's nothing racist about criticizing China for its conduct. What next? You'll be telling us it's racist to criticize Nigeria for being the source of most of the world's 419 spam?
Silly me. I hadn't heard that scammers, spammers, and those who give them shelter constituted a race.
"Chinese language tools" implies they are Chinese who use it (i.e the Chinese RACE), what part of that can't you understand as being racist?
It's already been shown earlier that the top spammers aren't from China so why the quip about the Chinese language tools? Yes you are silly and dare I use your own words "clueless' if you try to justify that blatantly racist statement.
I don't understand how slashdot can constantly get away with these types of racist quips about the Chinese. Why do you as Americans feel so threatened by them? Why do slashdot staff let through these constant stories that are designed to do nothing more then instill distrust and hatred for the Chinese? Clearly that last comment was put in place simply to taint the Chinese with the same brush, it serves no other purpose.
It's time you people realised you're being manipulated.
We wouldn't be able to modify our engines in any way... Or pc manufacturers for that matter... those with 386's would be stuck with 386's... This is ridiculous!!!

And I'm sure they don't have backups of the logs, user data etc ... This is nonesense, nothing is 'anonymised'
