Transcript:
The FBI has issued arrest warrants for 5 Chinese military officials, charging them with hacking into U.S. corporate computers. (Man 1: Disgusting, unacceptable, racist, which sounds best? "scabrous"?) Wait, does the NSA- a U.S. spy agency- hack into Chinese computers? Why shouldn't the Chinese arrest admiral Michale Rogers, chief of the NSA? (Man 2: Don't worry. You'll get a trial. Not like at GITMO.) No. We spy on the Chinese government and individual Chinese people. We don't spy on corporations. Industrial espionage=bad. (Barack Obama: When corporations watch porn and take showers and join leftist political groups. Their privacy rights are guaranteed. Even in China.) Of course, the NSA is free to spy on trade officials, and by extension, U.S. industries- which are dominated by certain companies. (Man: Bluster bomb!) (Man 2: Run! We're out-layered!!)
