That's what communists do, and they really believe the West falls for it (but we all laugh at them). I remember a news article in the early 1980's, where the Soviets were touting their manufacturing prowess in creating a home-grown PC and software, at a trade show in Moscow. The machine looked suspiciously like an Apple II. A western journalist typed a couple commands, and the screen display showed a listing of the monitor ROM (operating system) that displayed the Apple copyrights. Yup, a complete copy and the Soviets were too dumb to alter it before showing it to the world.
