    The dataset, which allegedly contains more than 10 petabytes of sensitive information, is believed by experts to have been obtained from the National Supercomputing Center (NSCC) in Tianjin – a centralized hub that provides infrastructure services for more than 6,000 clients across China, including advanced science and defense agencies.

    A hacker has allegedly stolen a massive trove of sensitive data – including highly classified defense documents and missile schematics – from a state-run Chinese supercomputer in what could potentially constitute the largest known heist of data from China.

      What's crazy is the hacker is trying to sell extremely classified Chinese defense information for only 'hundreds of thousands of dollars in crypto'. You can get a preview for 'thousands of dollars'.

      Is it worth placing a huge target on yourself for less than a million dollars? It's unfortunate I will never read a follow-up on this story.

        Depends on your citizenship and where you live. If the answer to both is "not China", what would you have to be afraid of?

            I seriously doubt China assassinates foreigners on foreign soil. They're not America or even the USSR.
