China is Intellectual Property Thieves!!
China has lately gained a reputation as a nation of first-rate intellectual property thieves.
China technicians have become so skilled at reverse engineering that their western counterparts have to look closely to tell the difference. The duplicate products are nearly indistinguishable from the originals and in some cases, even shipping before the original ships.
Look at the red circle in the picture!! It is Samsumg. The correct name is Samsung.

Is it good news for consumers? We can get cheaper products which is similar to the original products. But it’s bad news for companies or manufacturers that have invested a lot of time and money establishing the brands only to see them duplicated. Even though, the duplicate products are similar to the original products, but the quality is not as good as the original products.
A lot of companies and manufacturers are fear that making waves or sue copycat companies in China will get them on the bad side of the Communist Party in China which has the power to blacklist companies or manufacturers and ban them from doing business in China. Besides that, they have also been scared away by the experiences of Toyota and Honda, which sued copycat companies in China, only to face judges clearly biased in favor of the China companies.
