In this March 25, 2010 file photo, a Chinese flag blows in the air below the Google logo outside the Google China headquarters in Beijing. The classified diplomatic cables released by online whistle-blower WikiLeaks and reported on by The New York Times cited a cable from the US Embassy in Beijing that included allegations from a Chinese contact that China's Politburo directed a cyber intrusion into Google's computer systems as part of a "coordinated campaign of computer sabotage carried out by government operatives, private security experts and Internet outlaws."
