America's top defense officials say Google's work in China benefits Beijing's military

America's top two defense officials slammed Google's work with China on Thursday saying it has "indirectly benefited" Beijing's military. "We watch with great concern when industry partners work in China knowing that there is that indirect benefit," Marine Corps Gen. Joseph Dunford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told members of the Senate Armed Services Committee hearing. The latest revelation comes as the U.S. trade battle with China marches on, with intellectual property theft proving to be a major sticking point between the world's two largest economies.
