NSA cyberspies pilfer 2 petabytes [2000 terabytes] of data every hour from computers worldwide

"The key role NSA hackers play in intelligence gathering makes it difficult for Washington to pressure other nations—China in particular—to stop hacking U.S. companies to mine their databanks for product details and trade secrets." "The Chinese response, essentially: Look who's talking." "The bottom line: Using automated hacking tools, NSA cyberspies pilfer 2 petabytes [2000 terabytes] of data every hour from computers worldwide." (thanks Amir)
