Internal documents from the Chinese hacking company I-Soon have revealed a sordid culture of influence, alcohol, and sex, shedding light on the shady business practices, poor security protocols, and ties to the Chinese state within the country's hacking industry. The leaked records show executives wooing officials over lavish dinners, colluding with competitors, and paying "introduction fees" for lucrative projects.
