While there are some seriously and constantly
ignored long term domestic economic downsides to offshoring and outsourcing. They aren't a commercial security concern as such. That's very simple, they are being done because big corp wants cheap. Cheap means low quality and it's endemic.

Even if your model starts out with hiring best of breed from a cheaper labour force, (hey it could happen). In order for the next round of managers to show success, cheap is the driver, so they cut costs. Less and so overworked good people or more`cheaper crap people.

Any low tech country that boosts it's economy and gains a trained and experienced tech base
isn't doing anything wrong. Using a fool's greed to make a profit, is just good business....
You make a gun, sell it to someone for a tidy profit, don't start honking when they shoot you with it and take the profit back and everything else.....

It's just business....
