Chinese Micro-Chips Installed in Hardware Pose a Threat to Our National Security

There are plenty of cloud providers that are equipped to bid for the Pentagon’s contract

This year, hackers seem to be having a field day accessing our personal data. Google exposed hundreds of thousands of users data on its Google+ social network. Facebook was attacked and hackers gained access to the personal data of some 30 million users. Yet, these strikes pale in comparison to what is perhaps the most serious concern: Chinese manufacturers has been installing micro spy chips inside servers. This recent discovery raises many red flags as to China’s ability to hack into our secret government computers and related military secrets and operations.

THIS is but ONE of the things you can get by purchasing stuff made in China. I try to avoid purchasing anything made in China, but it’s next to impossible. When manufacturers choose to cut corners and have components of their products made in China, they are endangering the public and the nation. Look at the collapsed buildings made of cheap Chinese steel. Look at the poisoned pets who died from Chinese-made pet food ingredients (melamine). Need I say more?

This has been proven to be fake news.
All the design work is done in the USA.
The assembly and test is done in mostly Taiwan.

However, the original Bloomberg story has been not been verified by third parties. Apple did its own research and they’re really skeptical about it, too.

"Chinese manufacturers has been installing micro spy chips inside servers."

And nobody saw that coming? Really? Just about anything that
could be used for spying that is imported into America
from China or really from anywhere else should
be considered compromised.

This is a perfect example of fake news being taken up by the media as gospel.

Like ‘climate change’

I am hoping this is a setup to prove how gullible the media is.
