Israeli researchers have discovered that 200 of the major state-owned Chinese-based ISPs, China Telecom and China Unicom, have been engaging in the illegal practice of content injection into ne200rk traffic. The ISPs, which are among Asia’s largest, have reportedly set up numerous proxy servers with the aim of polluting the client’s ne200rk traffic with rogue advertisements and malware links, essentially redirecting legitimate traffic accessed via the domains used by these Chinese ISPs to the rogue ne200rk routes.
