It has to be, given our standard of living and associated labor costs relative to the Chinese. What they have is many more warm bodies. Lots of conscripted bureaucrat-slaves to dedicate to any task deemed important to the single-minded State. And lots of conscripted students in State-sponsored educational institutions to carry out whatever cyber warfare research and "Testing" the State deems beneficial to Itself.

Imagine if they get their hands on a focus-virus.

Personally, I'm more afraid of the TSA. A bunch of high school dropouts who's job applications got turned down by Burger King, with virtually unlimited and unaccountable authority, and probably lots of reasons to be resentful of people who can actually still afford to fly.

TSA really stands for "Terrorism Straight Ahead".
