The Wild West demands bigger, better guns
Like the skunk who moved in under our house despite all the rocks and wire and other deterrents we put in place, the Chinese got “Nuthin’ but time..."
Virginia Rep. Frank Wolf says four of his computers were hacked. New Jersey Rep. Chris Smith says two of his computers were compromised in December 2006 and March 2007.
...In calling for hearings in both the House and Senate, Wolf said there “probably are members serving in Congress whose computers have been compromised and they may not even know it."
OOPSIE! I failed to finish the linky. Here’s the updated story: *clicky*clicky*
And, to atone, an update on the story:
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang played aw-shucks dumb at a news conference. Reports AP:
Is there any evidence? … Do we have such advanced technology? Even I don’t believe it. . . . I’d like to urge some people in the U.S. not to be paranoid. They should do more to contribute to mutual understanding, trust and friendship between the U.S. and China.
This from the folks who hacked the Five Sided Puzzle Palace…
ShortBusGus —thanks for catching me on my loose shiite.
Now that they’ve hacked Congressmen, maybe it’ll get some attention.
“I’d like to urge some people in the US not to be so paranoid.” Like China’s stand on the Falun Gong. Or Tibet. China recently passed a law that says that anybody who reincarnates to become the next Dalai Lama has to have a government reincarnation permit (maybe a license). But that certainly isn’t paranoid. They’re just out to get them.
