Google says hackers are sending extortion emails to executives This is funny as hell. Oracle is used by the wealthy and powerful, and wannabes. All those computers the Chinese and everyone have hacked, are being pointedly used to attack people with money and, even, the banks.
Microsoft's webpage is filled with lots of shiny technology, like quantum computers and other Pie-in-the-Sky technology, and there's no mention that the Chinese have achieved quantum supremacy. They are holding their breath, waiting for the shit to hit the fan.
China has the ability to not just blackmail people, but to erase any data, and replace it with bullshit. They are hoping their lead in the technology will allow them to stomp on anybody for as long as they can keep it up. Even if they create a quantum internet overnight, there's no guarantee their computer can't hack it. The entire western world has been doing the moonwalk, for at least 12 years now. The British are starting to demand answers, or they will disavow the US as an ally. In response, the US government has appeased republicans, by firing the IRS, and going into a coma.
