Speaking of irony, have you seen the ABC News interview[1] with General Keith Alexander, Director of the NSA? He is specifically (and brilliantly) asked if he is confident that the NSA has not broken Hong Kong law (in it's cyber espionage activities). His answer is a mumble about the NSA not violating US law.

Under those circumstances I'd be somewhat careful with the word 'disappointed'... :)

»Are you sure you did not break US law when you hacked computer systems in the USA?«

»I am sure we did not break Chinese law.«

-- still, the answer is for "when they hacked computer systems in the USA".

As for if they broke Chinese law "when they hacked computer systems IN CHINA", that's another question.

if you use a computer (phone) MADE IN CHINA, you can't expect any privacy

Err, wait what?
