The Reuters copy is a bit spotty in its coverage...more information can be found here, here, and here.
Interesting quote from the third source listed above:
Under the new regulations, Internet news sites are encouraged to report news that is "healthy" and promotes economic and social progress, Xinhua said. In addition, the Shanghai Daily newspaper reported that any news Web site that reports "false or distorted information" will be fined up to 30,000 renminbi (US$3,701) under the new guidelines.
This case highlights a need for laws that prevent the offshoring of personal information without a citizen's consent. Had this theft occurred overseas there would be little law enforcement could do in both launching the investigation and arresting those responsible. Even with extradition treaties, it can take years (if ever) to bring a foreign perpetrator to justice. Not to mention the uncomfortable situation of having foreign law enforcement and governments confiscating systems that contain private info of US citizens in the course of their investigation.
Yes, but it's usually high end and thus out of reach of the masses.
examples:
Bose Wave Radio McIntosh audio equipment Apple's XServes IBM servers and mainframes Cisco Routers Netopia Routers AMI Motherboards Lots of commercial electronics for things like autos, CNC machines, telephony... etc
The same goes for electrical components that you don't see like Illinois Capacitors, TadCom resistors, several OEM power supplies... etc.
The real reason that so much industry has moved overseas to places like China and India, is that there are very loose environmental and worker safety rules. Manufacturing electronics involves toxic chemicals that are very expensive to dispose of in Germany, US and Japan... but in China you can just dump these chemicals out the back.

For some reason there is a large timestamp running across the film. I guess Lucas wanted to add an air of suspense with that effect.
