In China, the police have shut down a hacker training company that taught thousands of people how to launch cyberattacks and provided them with spy software. The reports come amid growing accusations of organised computer hacking originating from China that has chilled ties with the United States, and follow Google's threat last month to quit the Chinese market over cyber attacks. Media reports said, police in Hubei province shut down Black Hawk Safety Net and arrested three people. The company openly offered downloads of hacker tools and trojan software to 12,000 VIP members and 170,000 others who had registered for free membership. According to reports, the users learned how to hack into the financial accounts of others and steal funds, through courses that cost between 100 and 2,000 yuan.
