How much news do you read in Chinese?

The US government has hacked things in China. That you have not heard of something is not evidence that it doesn't exist.

North Korea also does plenty of hacking around the world. That's how they get a significant portion of their government budget, and they rely on cryptocurrency to support that situation.

Ukraine and Russia are doing lots of official and vigilante hacking right now.

Back in the mid 2000s, there was a guy who called himself "the jester" who was vaguely right wing and spent his time hacking ISIS stuff. My college interviewed him.
