do we have other sources for this other than just this government’s?

i absolutely believe it may have happened, but due to overwhelming and well documented history of lies from this regime, i’d feel like i was standing on more solid footing with this if we had some reputable 3rd party sources. ideally someone who is far away from the hysterical levels of partisanship our current leaders have planted themselves.

again, i’m not in denial that it couldnt have happened, it’s just that unfortunately i think it would be unreasonable to trust anything from this regime’s people. and to reiterate, they have a long and very well documented history of outright lying. not even typical politician half truths, but shoving it in our face lying.

Anecdote, but I have a friend in cybersecurity in Australia, and he was telling me a few months ago that China basically has almost all the data they could want on almost all of the US.
