Chinese hackers: No site is safe

Story Highlights:
* Chinese hackers claim to have broken into Pentagon's system
* The hackers met with CNN on an island near a Chinese naval hub
* Hackers say Beijing secretly pays them at times, something the government denies
* Official: "The Chinese government does not do such a thing"

The story -
They operate from a bare apartment on a Chinese island. They are intelligent 20-somethings who seem harmless. But they are hard-core hackers who claim to have gained access to the world's most sensitive sites, including the Pentagon.

In fact, they say they are sometimes paid secretly by the Chinese government -- a claim the Beijing government denies.

"No Web site is one hundred percent safe. There are Web sites with high-level security, but there is always a weakness," says Xiao Chen, the leader of this group.

This is bullshit omfg.

Listen, they inject false claims by saying that these "hackers" discussed it in private with this guy who probably can only speak english.

Fucking CNN.

ANY kind of operation like that sponsored by a government would not work with contracted independent hackers, absolute garbage, how can anyone even listen to this without fighting urges to vomit?
