- BassMastr, on 10/10/2007, -7/+43Why not pollute the virtual world too.
- facelesscoward, on 10/10/2007, -5/+40Well, to be fair, China also hosts ~20% of the world's population.
- TrippleHead, on 10/10/2007, -4/+32What a ***** suprise.
Not - Ajajadude, on 10/10/2007, -0/+15Especially given their governments relatively strict control over internet use there...
- xadhominemx, on 10/10/2007, -2/+14The manufacturer who doesn't follow the company's instructions when manufacturing the good.
- bigstinky, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11Checking my Zone Alarm logs shows most of the attempted intrusions to my PCare coming from China as well...It seems quite a few are coming from Russia and the Korea's as well.
- ZenFountain, on 10/10/2007, -8/+18On top of poison dog food, poison toothpaste and lead paint in children's toys you're telling me China is ***** our internets? zOMG. Economic boycott! Oh wait, China has us strung by the balls economically because Americans can't possibly do without 99 cent screwdriver sets from Wal-Mart.
- Salgat, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11Hows that "being fair", 1/5th of the population shouldn't be responsible for 1/2 of the malware on the internet.
- gthau, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10The back-country of China is amazing and the majority if Chinese people are very nice - especially considering I was a white guy travelling with a backpack. I'm rather surprised at the blind hatred of an entire country shown in the comments above.
What you're actually seeing is a police force completely unable (as in skills, equipment and policy) and uncaring (since the victims complaining are not domestic users) with regards to the problem. Add to that the fact that so few in the country who are skilled in these areas are able to earn a decent living from the IT industry wages over there and it's not surprising.
I'd rather praise sites like eBay (and/or Google? Don't have the URL handy) who go into such countries of choice for e-criminals and assist with education programs, donated equipment and sponsorship of local legal staff to help prosecute those who break the law. - Ajajadude, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Shut up, I thoroughly enjoy my toxic tools of destruction for a $1.07
- Celeron, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10How about speaking some ***** English?
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -5/+13Why are so many news sites suddenly attacking China?
Public oppinion is being altered ... purposefully.
It's obvious. - juicebag, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Relatively?
- monkeyrun, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7***** propaganda. It's hosted in China ... so who programmed the malware?
Are they hosting it in China just because it's cheaper? - greenlight2001, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8F-
That's the grade I give your poorly written comment. - bat-21, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Because everyone else uses knives and explosives.
- geartype2, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5yea I swear, ***** frog lovers, the world could do a lot better without one more of *those* people.
- mrASSMAN, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4As if we didn't already have enough reasons to dislike China.
- mrASSMAN, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4You mean the manual computing device? Yeah it was pretty clever.. but I'd rather have the wheel.
- tony4moroney, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3no they have you by the balls because they own almost $1trillion of your treasury bonds.
- mrASSMAN, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3http://*****.ytmnd.com/
- mrASSMAN, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3United States.
China still has a pretty low internet usage rate: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/32/Internet_users_en_2007.PNG - lead2thehead, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4An average of 3-4 people try to break into my web server every day. A good 3/4 of them come from Chinese IP addresses. So one of two things is happening:
1) There a lot of Chinese hackers.
2) Lots of hackers have taken control of Chinese computers. - ICSU, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3And just like junk in shops, Americans are the ones buying it.
It's all about demand and nothing else. - GawtMilk, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3What, did you think the designers said, "hey could I get these...but with like, lead-based paint?"
- iOsiris, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3The problem lies that most people in the world (there and here) are not familiar with computer viruses/malware/spyware/adware etc. But since we're Digg users, we probably don't see things from the 'non-tech savy' perspective.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5"china only produce *****"
Like pretty every single damn component in your computer that you just typed your message on?? - addicted68098, on 10/10/2007, -4/+7On the contrary, China produces ***** so we don't have to. If china was to stop exporting goods we wouldn't have adequate labor force to cope with demand, even if we significantly changed our buying habits. Not only that but it helps the economy and brings more people above the poverty line. The only problem I have with importing goods from nations like china is that sometimes their labor practices can be unethical. But for the most(ok some) part cheaper cost of labor equates to better working conditions.
- Ajajadude, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Well, in comparison to the control the lawyers have over the internet in America
- drmangrum, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2read the article.
retard. - newton21989, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2What country makes up the majority of the internet population?
- AbsurdParadox, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2LOL I hope you dont own any electronics... oh wait, how did you post this on the internet then?!
- xadhominemx, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3@zybch
Dangerous goods cause nothing but trouble for the company. - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2You only buy ***** then.
- newton21989, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3Look who's talkin', Kermit.
- xister, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Kinda like your brain...
- smqt, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1actually, there were quite a few wheels in the computing device, I think you mean the abacus?
besides, most think that the wheel was first invented in asia - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -3/+4The manufacturer who cuts corners because the company tells them to because it wants to screw every last cent of profit out of an item with no regard to the safety of the consumer who will eventually buy it.
- drmangrum, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Perhaps you should ask why China has so much ammunition for news sites.
- ElRayQuieres, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1"What we need right now is a clear message to the people of this country. This message must be read in every newspaper, heard on every radio, seen on every television... I want *everyone* to *remember*, why they *need* us! "
- TriTech, on 10/10/2007, -3/+4Perhaps we are just starting to hear the truth instead of corporate propaganda which says it's good for America to lose jobs to China.
- xister, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1***** you *****- crawl back under your rock.
- Tenoq, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3Agreed. So why does the US (8-9% of world population) account for 90% of the world's gun deaths? :P
- ElRayQuieres, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1*****
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -3/+4Horrible country
- mrASSMAN, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Oh, and by number: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7f/Internet_users_by_country_world_map.PNG/180px-Internet_users_by_country_world_map.PNG
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2 I have a recurring fantasy that a Special Forces team goes rogue and assassinates spammers and malware people all over the world, kind of like real life super heroes.
- ocram, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Your conjecture must be 100% correct, with the huge sample size you have there.
- Anonymous3, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1What, like Americans supporting DuPont?
