A Breakthrough Against Chinese Government Hackers — While Critical Networks Stay Exposed

A group on the trail of Chinese hackers has achieved a breakthrough. For voters who put national sovereignty first, that is the kind of news that matters.

The larger picture is blunt: Chinese government hackers are secretly burrowing into critical networks, and they are using creative new methods.

For many sovereignty-minded voters, the breakthrough will reinforce a simple point: vigilance, not reassurance, is what protects national infrastructure. The costs of the status quo are borne by ordinary citizens who depend on critical networks.
