China Uses Stupid Defense

In response to claims they hacked into congressional computers China responded is there any evidence they have such advanced technology? A lot of spam and hacking originates from Russia. So are they claiming Russians are smarter? A lot of famous hacks were by kids and the real deterrent in the US are harsh criminal prosecution. It has been long known that China illegally duplicates movies and software. They have come up with elaborate ways to acquire some movies even before they are released. Based on the seen side of hacking I would say china is more sophisticated in their hacking. But Russia has them beat for volume of scams and spam.
