They even named the culprits! They're the former electrical engineering students Li Xiaoyu and Dong Jiazhi.
US authorities explained they are private hackers but they have been hired by the Chinese Ministry of State Security as well.

They previously stole "hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of trade secrets, intellectual property, and other valuable business information" beginning in 2009, prosecutors alleged.
According to the indictment, the hackers were able to infiltrate a British artificial intelligence firm, a Spanish defense contractor, and a Australian solar energy company.

The list of countries affected by their illegal activities consists of USA (States of Massachusetts and Maryland), Australia, Belgium, Germany, Japan, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom.

And nope, this does not even look like it's gonna end anytime soon according to the FBI. Actually, China is keeping them quite busy as of late.
