National Journal Magazine - Hacking The Hill

National Journal Magazine - Hacking The Hill
"This past June, Rep. Frank Wolf, a Republican from Northern Virginia, took to the House floor and announced that four of his office's computers 'were compromised by an outside source.'

'On these computers,' he said, 'was information about all of the casework I have done on behalf of political dissidents and human-rights activists around the world.' Wolf is an outspoken critic of China's human-rights policies.

'That kind of information, as well as everything else on my office computers -- e-mails, memos, correspondence, and district casework -- was open for outside eyes to see,' Wolf said. And then, without naming names, he added, 'Several other members were similarly compromised.'"


Interesting read on the hack of Congressional computers most likely by Chinese intelligence agents. You have to expect this stuff. As if we aren't hacking on every angle we can of China's government network. Par for the course.
