I dont people realize just how dangerous the Chinese government is. We keep buying their products only to make them richer do they can use that money to expand their military might. We are playing with a viper by prodding it with a stick. Sooner or later this viper WILL strike a very serious blow.

Report: Chinese PLA Access 80% of “World’s Communications”


China has found a backdoor to access 80 percent of the “world’s communications” to include information passed through the internet and sensitive infrastructure databases, writes a former senior security analyst for the Pentagon.

F. Michael Maloof, who now writes for WND, cites Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd and ZTE Corporation as the companies the Chinese government and People Liberation Army can use to gain access to this information via commercial networks installed by each Chinese electronic manufacturer.

“The two companies give the Chinese remote electronic “backdoor” access through the equipment they have installed in telecommunications networks in 140 countries. The Chinese companies service 45 of the world’s 50 largest telecom operators,” Maloof writes.

He goes further to say the Chinese are working to access the remaining 20 percent. Individuals and companies who communicate over their “virtual private networks” or VPNs are especially susceptible. Sources have told Maloof those networks are leaking like a “sieve” to Chinese data collectors, especially those that connect to companies based in places like Mexico.

U.S. government officials are aware of this threat. The U.S. House Intelligence Committee has also chosen to investigate the two companies in question. U.S. Commerce Department leaders banned Huawei from helping build a national wireless network as Maloof also points out.

It’s easy to connect this to the further cyber threat posed by the Chinese. It also brings to mind the 1,800 cases of counterfeit Chinese parts found in U.S. military equipment to include missile defense systems and intelligence sensors. On the drum beats for more cyber awareness inside the Pentagon.

If you want to hear more from Maloof on the subject he did an interview on The Cyber Jungle about the topic. Fast forward to the last segment when Maloof’s interview picks up.

Not new! Has been going on for some years now and probably somebody has finally awakened to discover we have real problems with the electronic communication segment and security of our data!!! What a crock!! Just now discovering and bringing it to light!!! Sad, just sad!!

They have been warning for decades with no avail. You are right, very sad.

We are too busy with giving away all the resources and technology that has been developed by our country for the past few decades to bother with protecting it and continuing to grow from within!!! TWIT!!

They dont understand or realize that if we are attacked or other parts of the world is attacked without the factorys here in the US our enemies that we are giving everything to is going to slam the door in our faces.

And there will be no deal making with these crazies!!! JMHO!!

There should be NO dealings with this communist government. Not until they learn to treat their people as human beings. I'm tired of hearing of the way they blatently kill and or beat these "peasents" for wanting to live their own lives.

Appears they are treating the rest of the world with the same disdain and contempt! JMHO!!

It certainly seems to look like they are. And we as a country keep kissing their pagan asses. What we need to do is bomb their leaders out of existence.

And we keep going to the trough to borrow more and more of their money while they are buying up our debt so they can crush us at the most inopportune time~!!! TWIT!!!

You see it and so do I, but what is going on in the millions of people in this country that are ignorant of this? How stupid can they be? It just boggles my mind how so many individuals have been bluffed by this present POS administration. Especially the young smart phone idiots. How foolish we have become.

Foolish and stupid to sit back and let things happen each and every day!!!

“Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!” George Carlon

Absolutely absolute!!! TWIT!!!
