Piracy is a serious thing in China. But let's think of other aspects of the story: 1. the prices of software, including microsoft windows, office, are higher than these in the US. But the income of chinese is only 1/10 of that of american. is it fair to chinese customers? 2. you promote this issue to National Safety. Is it really relate to the safety of american? I just discover the arrogance, as usual, from the article. actually, piracy is a matter of business violation. Chinese software companies suffered more than american companies because they are of small size and can't bear the loss due to piracy. like movie piracy, if all americans behave well, how can the pirater get the origin of the movie to mass copy them?
3. without any evidence and generate the conclusion that 90% of chinese are using pirated software! the comment itself shows incredulity of the article.

It won't be too long before China and other "patent pirates" start developing their own breakthrough inventions, processes, and technologies. Then they will desperately want protection worldwide for THEIR OWN innovations.
They need to be firmly reminded about the "...comes around" adage..and inevitability. INNOV8R
