China's cybersecurity law grants government 'unprecedented' control over foreign tech

So...if I understand correctly...

Companies that sell proprietary technology to China will need to decide to do one of the following;

1) Go out of business in the Short Term, by losing a cash stream from sales

2) Go out of business in the Long Term, since their sales will decrease anyway from the competition of products created in China using the Intellectual Property that China has basically stolen, ahem, been given.

Any company that subscribes to this extortion deserves what they get. If Russia and China think they can get along without the West, let's see if they are right.

I remember as a child my father would not buy us toys or gadgets if they were made in China. I use to think he was an idiot, but, as it turns out, he was a genius!
