I have writing about this quite extensively recently. Obviously nothing has changed in 4 years so I am surprised to see Bruce writing about this.

What is super interesting is something Bruce never touched:

I raised once again our very serious concerns about growing cyber-threats to American companies and American citizens. I indicated that it has to stop. The United States government does not engage in cyber economic espionage for commercial gain. And today, I can announce that our two countries have reached a common understanding on the way forward. We’ve agreed that neither the U.S. or the Chinese government will conduct or knowingly support cyber-enabled theft of intellectual property, including trade secrets or other confidential business information for commercial advantage. In addition, we’ll work together, and with other nations, to promote international rules of the road for appropriate conduct in cyberspace.

Read that more than once. Obama literally says "The United States government does not engage in cyber economic espionage for commercial gain."

This is revealing. This does not deny that they are engaging in cyber espionage. It's just they aren't doing it commercial gain.

How do you get the world governments to agree to the digital geneva conventions when they are all guilty of breaching whatever would be in the digital geneva convention?
