The intrusions on the satellites, used for earth climate and terrain observation, underscore the potential danger posed by hackers, according to excerpts from the final draft of the annual report by the US - China Economic and Security Review Commission. The report on the 2007 and 2008 intrusions is scheduled to be released next month.
