Taiwan cyber unit says it will not be intimidated by China bounty offer

Taiwan’s cyber forces will not be intimidated by China’s threats of a bounty for the arrest of 20 people Beijing says are Taiwanese military hackers, and China’s legal system has no jurisdiction on the island, its defence ministry said.

China views democratically-governed Taiwan as its own territory and has over the past five years increased its military and political pressure against the island. Taiwan’s government rejects Beijing’s sovereignty claims.
