While America once was fearful of China s communist philosophies, today the Asian giant poses a far greater threat in its economic success. China is home to some of the world s most sophisticated hackers, many of which are given a virtual green light to attack foreign governments and businesses, in attacks that assist China s government and Chinese businesses. It s a well known fact, but everyone is too afraid to try to stand up to the Asian nation, as it hold large amounts of debt, as well as enjoys control of much of the world s rare mineral resources and manufacturing.
