arrested and on TVI just discovered The Dark Visitor today (an offspring of the book with the same name by Scott Henderson I had missed till now) and I must say, it has some nice stories about China's hackers' scene, like the recent arrest of a group of Hangzhou students, related to the now defunct Heikeba.com.
As you might recall, the Western security forces have been complaining regularly over the past years that the People's Liberation Army or other Chinese government agencies had been hacking their sites. Since those accusation always came without even a trace of evidence, I guestimated that a bored section of the 120 million online Chinese would be a more likely candidate.
Of course, diligent police officers would not have a chance of arresting PLA officers, it they would be caught hacking foreign government sites, but university students seems always a more likely suspect. At least the security forces in China sticked to their earlier promise to act.
