The New York Times reports there is a gigantic spy system that has targeted and exploited computers in government agencies around the world. The spy system was discovered when the esteemed Dalai Lama asked Canadian firm Munk Center for International Studies to do a some anti-virus work on his computer.
Evidence proves that China is the country of origin. Whether or not it is the Chinese Government or Chinese "patriot hackers" is to be determined, but more than 1,295 computers in 103 countries were affected in some way by the spynet.
The most amusing part is that it is reported the researchers discovered the spynet using, of all things, a Google search.
GOTTA be fricken difficult eh?!
