For years, China expected foreign companies not to publicly voice their complaints about hacking or intellectual-property violations in order to protect their broader interests in the country.

There are those who've been hacked by the Chinese and those who don't know they've been hacked by the Chinese.

So rather than face the bitter truth, China has placed severe restrictions on the Internet and enlisted America's high-tech companies as their Internet police.

There are two kinds of big companies in the United States. There are those who've been hacked by the Chinese, and those who don't know they've been hacked by the Chinese.

We now see hacking taking place by foreign governments and by private individuals all around the world.

I believe China is a major trade violator. The Chinese break all the rules. They counterfeit our goods, steal our international property rights, and hack the computers of our industries and government. Something must be done about it.

I didn't say Facebook could not enter China, but nor did I say that it could.

If China wants to be a constructive, active player in the world economy, it's got to respect intellectual property rights or it makes it pretty impossible to do business with them.

China has always been very hospitable, but we can choose who enters our house. We could not allow any companies to enter China and make money while hurting the country.

China has not lived up to any other trade agreements over the last decade... They don't have any compliance or enforcement.
