Carl Bildt warns China's Great Cannon will backfire

Original: I believe "Great Cannon" program will backfire against China's own possibilities to develop as a modern economy. http://

Former Swedish prime minister and foreign minister Carl Bildt says China's 'Great Cannon' programme, a state-linked tool reportedly used to redirect massive web traffic to overwhelm foreign websites, will backfire against China's own prospects of developing as a modern economy. His comment accompanies a South China Morning Post report that the programme has been in development for about a year, according to sources.

Why now: Reports that China has deployed the Great Cannon for around a year have reignited debate over cyber operations and their economic consequences.
