    Its probably a bit more complex than that.

    The problem with China seems to be that it has a disproportionate number of compromised machines. That doesn't mean to say that they are actually Chinese controlled.

    Part of this is doubtless due to sloppy security, with a contribution from a high percentage of pirated and unpatched software.

    Update

    This is getting farcical

    Solid Oak (Cybersitter) have issued cease and desist notices to the major PC manufacturers claiming that Green Dam violates their copyrights.

    And Sony (of all people!) have chosen to ignore it.............this could get interesting?
