American businessmen and tourists, who intend to travel china and visit the Olympics Games, are at a high risk of getting hacked by local young hackers. Even the private cell phone is at risk: The hackers try to get information from the Americans who travel china, by entering their private mobile telephone.
U.S. officials have been sending strict warnings, for the sake of the Americans who plan to visit China in the nearest future.

Though the fear of hacked computers and mobiles is in fact exists, the American authorities try to quiet this information, and not to accuse the Chinese government or its army of hacking into its network. Without any valid proof, this accusation might cause an international crisis that will harm both countries.
Online spying is becoming more sophisticated and common. The young Chinese hackers are trying to copy information from the computers located at the hotels and airports. After that, they are trying to insert wireless spying software- to the Blackberry device of the selected “victim”. The Bluetooth technology is also being used in the hacking industry; the online burglars using it to still information from electrical devices.

While health warnings are published in the media, there isn’t any organization that warns the tourists on their way to china, from being hacked while visiting the Great Wall of China or watching the Olympic Games in Beijing. The online threats are lurking out there, and there is nothing to do about it.

Free Wi-Fi, covering an area of 100 square kilometers, will be available to Internet users in Beijing during the Olympic Games this summer. Service provider, China Communications, expects to expand the range of the project to cover the whole city and some of the peripheral areas by the year 2010. The service will allow Wi-Fi enabled laptop and mobile phone users to access the internet from any point within range.

According to report in Xinhua, China’s state news agency, the trial version of Beijing’s wireless broadband internet access was launched on 25 June. This version represents the first phase of the project, which will be expanded gradually until reaching its goal in 2010. During the Olympic Games, internet access will be free of charge, but following that, it is likely to be chargeable. Just how much internet users will have to pay for the service is not yet clear.

Users of games consoles, MP3 players and PDA’s will also be able to enjoy free internet connection within the Wi-Fi range. The range of hot spots – access points to the internet, will overlap in the city, creating a continuous wireless network. Similar projects exist in some other cities around the world. Using the momentum created by the games, the Chinese government is forging ahead in many service areas; on the touchy subject of online censorship, the organizing committee of the Beijing Olympics has promised that internet use will be unrestricted by government controls.
