China reportedly lashes out US tech giants like Google, Apple, Microsoft, Yahoo and more for allegedly stealing their state secrets.

Chinese media criticized Google, Apple, Microsoft, Facebook, Yahoo, and Cisco Systems for cooperating with the National Security Agency's Prism program to monitor China, CNET reported.

Whistleblower Edward Snowden revealed that the Prism program was designed to gather and process foreign intelligence that passes through American servers, and Google was accused of giving the government access to its data, which Google clearly denied, the report said.

However, earlier in May, US formals accused several Chinese military officials for hacking into US corporate servers and stealing American trade secrets, which China denied calling US hypocrite, it added.
