Workaround suggestions miss the point. Anonymous Coward should be able to check the primary sources of our research. We have a firewall between our minds and our culture's information. AC BTW I watched the 2-minute video, it's a great triumph of voxel mapping, but not a great advance in knowledge. Skip it.

I was about to write a sarcastic reply to the statement, "No law being broken in sight."
But K.S.K. is right. The law broken and the law breaker are, indeed, hard to define. The lawbreaker being the government... Hm? The lawbreaker being the corporation that mis-uses a system of law in order to profit... Hmm? We have traditions! Corporations are _expected_ to mis-use the legal system to suit their primary goal.

:: define a corporation as a being that struggles for more profit :: When the result is profit, is a corporation breaking a law?? In a moral world. But By Definition, NO in this global _invented_ system of arcane rules, so the result is as you see. The system has several players so, like a RICO conspiracy, one can always shift blame to the other, making resistance difficult. Who are the lawbreakers? Both sides, i think.

--The law breakers are certainly the law makers.-- I see misuse of laws rampant around me. The Las Vegas police give out bogus tickets that can easily be dismissed -- but only by appearing in person, back in Las Vegas, requiring you pay for a round-trip back to Las Vegas!

The system of profits uses the system of law.
The complications are obfuscations.

ORIGINAL SOURCE reads like a jargon piece intended to underlay influential fear rhetoric. Note: the article also promotes a specific republican candidate for pez-ident, at the same time it sounds a klaxon regarding the importance "presidential decisions" to "jargon threat."

"The next president – whether it’s Barack Obama or Republican frontrunner Mitt Romney who wins the White House in November – will be faced with a frustrating but necessary challenge in tackling U.S.-Chinese cybersecurity engagement."
