Recently, the United States constantly blamed China for Internet hacker attacks. The US government first accused China as the No.1 suspect for the federal employees’ information leak, then denounced that China hired hackers to hack into the computer system of United Airlines. After that, NBC lately claimed that Chinese cyber spies hacked into mailboxes belonging to high-level governmental officers who were in charge of national security and trade.

The US makes bold and ungrounded hypotheses to accuse China, while as the biggest hacker nation in the world, the US has been condemned by international community. Confessed by the people who work at the US intelligence department, the US government surveilles other countries’ governments and organizations, and companies. Somehow now it turns and accuses China for hacking into US officers’ mailboxes. Where is the evidence? And people might also like to know has the US ever hacked into Chinese officers’ mailbox?

Due to these unreasonable accusations, China is forced to build its own Internet power as to effectively defend network security. In the meantime, while the US keeps attacking China’s Internet, China is attempting to make political and diplomatic dialogues with US, showing its willingness to cooperate with the US and face up to all the network security challenges together.

The cooperation among China, the US, and the international community is especially important during such a challenging moment of fighting for network security. As for the US, who first started the violation, really should stop all the accusations about China, start to equally treat other countries, and host serious dialogues to solve actual problems of network security.
