natural born performers to cyber crimes

The Age of Enlightenment doctrine accordance with the rule of law's threefold division, has yet not come to China.
Recently published Chinese academic papers claim that researchers at Jiaotong University collaborated with an elite Chinese army unit to study how to carry out sophisticated cyber-attacks.
China has denied all accusations in regarding computer network break-ins, and have actually accused the U.S. of stealing their own secrets.
But in February a string of sophisticated hacks into high profile corporations, which included Apple, Microsoft and Tumblr and Facebook, were reported, and many felt the attacks were a direct reply to Mandiant company’s report on the Chinese hackers.

Shanghai Jiaotong University is the premiere institution of higher education, and a lot of China’s top-level lawmakers can claim the University as their Alma Mater as well.  Now, that very same University has published papers that seems to present damning evidence backing the U.S.' claim that China has a PLA-backed hacking unit.
