China Flag Patch
The poor souls at Black Hawk Safety Net had to be in the Chinese radar at a time when China needs to act tough. I say “act,” because that is pretty much what China is doing. Again, anyone who has been keeping an eye on China’s forays into cyberwarfare activities can easily spot this pathetic tough-guy stance China seems to be taking. From my perspective this is politics, smoke and mirrors.

China is going to continue to act like the little kid who knows they were caught doing something wrong but is hoping they can fake it long enough for people believe their innocence. Which is to say, publicly, China will be in forced denial, an all too common tactic used in international relations.
A question which has been bouncing around my head is why is the media so surprised by this whole Google-China deal? This level of ignorance reminds me of nearly a decade ago when the American public was surprised by the terrorist attacks of September 11th.
