Activities run by subsidiaries of subsidiaries of companies in countries we ought not be dealing with the way we are. Sometimes even big boys that we know about (COSCO, for instance). There's a lot of shady stuff going on with regards to ownership and less obvious things like equipment and operations at a lot of our major ports.
