This either happens a lot or it happened a few weeks ago? I guess the official US statement is the news? Is it that the US is doing the same and so can't react too strongly or can they not prove it was the Chinese government? Seems kind of like it should be a bigger deal. Not long before nation-state cyberattacks are going to count similarly to actual nation-state physical attacks.
