Britain is ready to accuse China for hacking into its Electoral Commission, affecting 40 million voters. Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden will caution officials about Chinese cyber threats. The US is set to blame Beijing for similar cyber attacks. Last year, the commission admitted to a breach by 'hostile actors' for 14 months. Hackers accessed and altered voter registers from 2014 to 2022 and compromised the commission's email system, exposing anyone contacting its staff. China may face blacklisting of suspects linked to the breach.
