The International Cyber Policy Centre, as evidenced within it’s latest report ‘Is China still stealing Western IP?‘ authored by Dr. Adam Segal, Director: Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), Dr. Samantha Hoffman, Non-resident Fellow – ICPC, Fergus Hanson, Head of International Cyber Policy Centre and Tom Uren, Visiting Fellow – Cybersecurity.

‘”Despite initial hopes that China had accepted a distinction between (legitimate) traditional political–military espionage and (illegal) espionage to advantage commercial companies, assessments from the three countries suggest that this might be wishful thinking.
