That's funny -- "everybody"...

Oh,wait, I see -- you were making your post relevant to the list 
charter!

Of course there were consequences and no-one worth knowing would be 
surprised by any of this.

The only thing I find at all surprising is that anyone actually thinks 
this is particularly newsworthy -- such attacks by the Chinese are far 
from new and anyone worth knowing already knows how generally 
incompetent corporate and government institutions are at (proactive) IT 
security...
