For some reason though, it just pisses me off that they do this so brazenly.
I wouldn't let it bother you too much. The UK and US digitally attack infrastructure in other countries all the time. Its just not in the press here. We basically invented the supply chain style of cyber attack.
The same way that the Chinese attacks on the West aren't publicised much there. Don't underestimate how politicised the issue is too, particularly over the Huawei stuff. They haven't been a threat for years...its just politically beneficial to paint them as that at the moment. There's a quiet cyber war going on and our press like to paint us as the innocent victims.
Edit; Good read about the NSA hacking the shit out of Huawei before it was cool https://www.nytimes.com/2014/03/23/world/asia/nsa-breached-chinese-servers-seen-as-spy-peril.html?_r=1

Anyone else affected by the (allegedged) Chinese attach on Exchange servers?

I am not hugely inconvenienced myself, just experiencing a bit of intermittent downtime as the IT guys are scrambling to install patches.
For some reason though, it just pisses me off that they do this so brazenly. Really affecting my work concentration today.
