If I make malware that attacks government services I get ASIO'd and can't even let my family or a lawyer know I've been held and interrogated.

If clammy sammy does it the government buys the product and makes piracy for rich failsons legal.

Someone make this make sense.

Our intelligence agencies keep warning about Chinese hackers but then hand over all our data to foreign companies for their economic and political advantage. Its fucking traitorous how we give up our sovereignty. Then despite other countries having their hooks deep into us they just blatantly attack our infrastructure. This on top of the massive foreign influence campaigns they conduct through social media that stir up dangerous extremism. It is a joke. If the government wants us to take threats from China seriously (and we should) we have to come clean about the amount of intelligence gathering and influence from countries.
