Surprise.

The spying accusations were baseless and undermined relations between the countries, a spokesman for the Foreign Ministry, Liu Jianchao, said at a news conference.

Four Chinese are charged with spying by the Justice Department.  Australia, Great Britain, Germany, New Zealand and Australia have all become upset with China's increased "clandestine efforts to collect military secrets and advanced technology."

All baseless, say the Chinese.  Lies.  All Lies.  Its a good thing they can't arrest our reporters and whistleblowers and put them in prison.  Like they do at home. 

No wait.  They do punish Americans, through paid intermediaries, for raising concerns.  The University of Michigan administration punished Professor Bill Kauffman for raising the issue of Chineses students being used to steal high technology from the university program. 

The University of Michigan is paid large amounts of full tuition money (U of M tuition is very very high) by the Chinese government to educate Chinese students.  No background checks on those students.  U of M is happy to take the checks, and implement the "don't ask, don't tell" policy.  Kauffman asked and told.  They did not like it.
