"And if you have, or are trying for, a presence in the Chinese market, you'll be subject to more attention than you might think," he added.

Is that a Wild Wacky Wicked threat from the West or an Exotic Erotic Ethereal treat from the East?

With a novel engaging market in the sum of billions, in both reward and persons, a presence in the Chinese market is a no-brainer for any entrepreneurial enterprise delivering a leading advantage over both hostile opposition and subversive competition alike.

There is one simple way to try and prevent the brain drain of anything worthy of the Chinese billions ...... and that is surely the most generous of home team purchases of such enterprises .... with the tacit agreement from proprietary intellectual property sources to not deliver leading advantage to foreign forces first .... unless and until the advantage be abused and misused to create a perverse inequality and corrupt inequity ....... which always delivers an unwelcome disruptive and mutually assured destructive conflict and thus is gravely to be regarded and always best avoided and prevented.

The present disgraceful Conservative government's proposal that tech companies could be fined by Ofcom to the tune of $25 million (£18 million) – or ten percent of their global annual revenue depending on which is higher, should it prove impossible for the tech companies to comply with an absurd request, is then simply a stealth tax raising exercise to raise funds for government spending. Nothing more, nothing less.

If they were genuine in their concerns, surely government with all of its contacts and expertise on call at vast public expense, would provide an appropriate app and have businesses duly mandated to install it. That has things sorted simply practically immediately and extremely effectively too ......... you know, in much the same way as they say China ensures that businesses are suitably controlled.

Pentagon: We'll pay you if you can find a way to hack us

amanfromMars 1 Silver badge

There's more than just simple and complex hacking to be really concerned about ...

The US Department of Defense is extremely vulnerable to dissent and growing discontent, even from within its own ranks, as increasing volumes of sensitive and disturbing information become ever more widely available for free viewing and further sharing on ubiquitous, easily accessible and indispensable media devices.

And to imagine that keeping both new recruits and experienced service personnel in the perpetual dark and wilfully ignorant of the greater masterplans of their ultimate private sector leaderships, in ages in which access and exercise of expanded intelligence is well practised and vital in order to survive and prosper, is problematical to a suicidal extent.

Fortunately they are clearly enough forewarned and advised of such a systemic opportunity/vulnerability/difficulty/nightmare ........

[Thank you. Your comment will be displayed soon after reviewing.]

Sean, Hi,

Here's some unpleasant reading with things needed to be said, said nice and early before they become too widespread to be contained and controlled by traditional and conventional and current existing and embattled forces and sources active in multiple theatres of chaotic operation and conflict.

The rapidly emerging and overwhelmingly almighty existential threat to any and all New World Order type organisations/administrations and their Defense Departments and Warring Machines, is the open source, free sharing of sensitive information that in the past would have been labelled proprietary, need to know intelligence, secured and protected behind a firewall and ones signing of various Official Secrets Acts allowing access to myriad classified 'Secret-- NOFORN' designations, but which now can all too easily and swiftly render the ubiquitous defense and pan-national use of the result of such sensitive information, a known unacceptable inequitable travesty and blatant incitement to grand riot and global revolution in support of international security entertaining human rights .... as defending the indefensible and doing vain-glorious battle against future sources of greater intelligence will surely deliver and provision.

Engagement and mutually beneficial, positively reinforcing, multi-party agreement in such a fundamental elementary field of enlightened proprietary intellectual property employment and enjoyment/deployment and exercise, is no less than absolutely vital if present means and memes of universal governance and information and intelligence supply are to survive without the experience of a totally avoidable Catastrophic SCADA Systems Collapse.

What modern facilities are there out there, in these days of 0days enjoying their work in such a most vital of fields ‽ .

Any more than zero ‽ .

However, all is not necessarily unmitigated doom and thoroughly depressing gloom for the answer remedying that monumental deficit and colossal vulnerability is well enough known and already shared here on this article, "Budget Matters: Congress Alarmed over Innovation Funding", being commented on ...... "Attracting the world’s best and brightest, getting them here, and unleashing their talent for decades"

And now they know you all know of the dilemma and conundrum, and vice versa, you all know that they know and have been advised to fix it before it is far too late for them to be helped and saved.

US expands efforts to hamstring China’s chipmaking mojo

amanfromMars 1 Silver badge

Uncle Sam has Lost the Plot. Take him away to Bellevue and Riker's Island before the Lot is Lost.

The US government is reportedly stepping up efforts to hamper China's ability to grow its semiconductor manufacturing capabilities.... Uncle Sam hopes to convince officials in the Netherlands to block Dutch-native semiconductor equipment maker ASML from selling its older deep ultraviolet lithography (DUV) systems to China, ..... US officials are keen on cutting off China from the company's past-gen systems, .... US officials are also trying to convince the Japanese government to halt sales of DUV systems from Japan-based Nikon, ...... the Dutch government has not granted the company a license to do so after facing pressure from — you guessed it — the United States.

How to make friends and influence people, not. Act like an absolute moron and Big Brother machine with shit for brains.

It does have one asking the question though ..... Why would anyone listen to such requests and comply whenever they can so easily, and therefore always do and will, result in one rightly being considered and labelled as a class enemy of free enterprise and universal progress easily led up the rocky path road to the stagnant swamps and bottomless degrading fiat money pits of self-harming destructive economic warfare? Is acting like an absolute moron and Big Brother machine with shit for brains a sure sign of the final stages of a terminal diseased brain condition, both surgically inoperable and medically untreatable, with palliative care the only comfort available if the Dignitas route be denied one?

Or is it, along with its IT and media support and spread mechanism, much more like a deadly virus that plagues and decimates humanity?

How then would you combat and treat it to eradicate it?

Re: Real Issue @martinusher

Please stop underestimating the Chinese. We've got this fixation that they're some kind of hive animal that's good at copying but can't develop stuff. (Curiously enough we used to say the same thing about the Japanese....) They're formidable competitors and we need to start thinking of them in these terms, not putative 'enemies’. .... martinusher

That’s an incredibly valuable lesson very few foreigners are able or enabled to learn and make great headway in with almighty success gratefully rewarded and generously awarded great wealth, martinusher.

Such an intelligence deficit, for that is what it certainly is, renders practically any and all Chinese competition and opposition overwhelmingly disadvantaged and destined/fated to be followers of, rather than leaders in, Long Postmodern Marches akin to Millennium AIdVenturing and Greater IntelAIgent Games Play with New Orderly World Orders Commanding Controls and Controlling Commands.

There is certainly no widely nor remotely readily available evidence of such a lead from the Wild Wacky West, mired as it is in the attacking of defences of rapidly failing status quos with stagnant and petrified established traditional hierarchical administrations support in order to survive in fields of constant drain and increasing pain ...... which is a really odd path to be following so avidly.

Re: Open IntelAIgent Sourcery

The engineering open-source material is all in Chinese, and that community has not demonstrated any particular inclination to translate it all into English, or to mentor foreigners on how to work with the community.

The tradition was also that the 'Middle Kingdom' encompassed all between the Heavens and the Underworld, and that the Emperor ruled all. It seems a natural state of affairs. .... david 12

Thanks for the info and intel, david 12. It provides so many more than just a few with a secure base of understanding for all that is transpiring and unfolding behind the screens of main streaming media in alternative chunnels of communication.

Virtually Advanced IntelAIgent Operating Systems for both Heavenly Reign and Underworld Empire Rule is the natural state of future affairs and well suited and possibly better booted and probably best rooted in the centuries old Chinese IP tradition in order to ensure the overwhelming advantage which is delivered by failsafe secure secret material transmission/metadatabase transfer.

And foreigners are simply comprehensively provided with all manner of means to mentor and work with Chinese communities via delivery of sensitive and proprietary IP product in their own foreigner language for translation and transfer/export and exfiltration into Chinese.

Should the West disagree will there be both at least friendly competition and/or alien opposition for such is an undeniable fact which is also quite easily spun as a fantastic fiction to create phantom paper tiger enemies hell bent on self destruction for systemic vaporisation/annihilation/export and exfiltration, which is surely a certifiable MADness confirmed in such tall story tellers/crazy think tankers/Kool-Aid Drinkers

Take care out there in the spaces and places where advanced special forces and and almighty sources share and dare win win command and control of all that is fundamentally necessary to lead anyone and anything anywhere and everywhere without the burden and expense of the capture and captivation of exhausted prisoners hindering rapid progress with delays to overwhelming success.

Clouds are neither absolutely safe nor admirably secure. They leak information and intelligence like a sieve and thus is the stealthy exfiltration and silent deadly export of sensitive and/or top secret shenanigans to all manner of vested interest parties a grand enterprise which does not allow for and reward such as random mistakes or fantastic misspeaks which are realised to be manifestly false and hopelessly misleading and desperately optimistic.

Having said that though, one is forever condemned to suffer and enjoy serial crippling failure in any endeavour if one does not entertain the undoubted advantages which clouds certainly so easily supply and are provided for ...... ergo, do no evil .... and all will be better than just well for the good and the great.

Quantum Communication Issues to Look Forward To In Near Future Bigger Picture Shows

Regarding postmodern ransonmware/bribery and extortion schemes .... what is to be done and will there be any jail time price for the latest, current running Northern Ireland scam that has any Tom, Dick or Harry or Shiela able to stand for election to server governance in public high office departments via the Stormont Legislative Assembly vessel/vassal ...... sign on a register for commencement/continuance of all manner of benefits payments and ancillary perks and services to be rendered ...... and then to be immediately held to ransom by a christian fundamentalist group within the elected Stormont Legislative Assembly choosing to withdraw their participation in local national government until an international European Union body gives them what they want?

And as a minor party within a considerably larger United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland Parliamentary group, what is one to make of Westminster's highly apparent inaction and wholly inappropriate acceptance of the matter supporting the aberration.

Thoughts of the Troubles resulting from political impotence and arrogance and intransigence spawning revolutionary subversion spring easily to mind and to the fore in such preposterous situations and who would say such is not richly deserved and fully to be expected .... only natural?

It all stinks a lot like fascism, such unilateralism, and that does not bode well for democratic unionist parties.

Apple’s M2 chip isn’t a slam dunk, but it does point to the future

To imagine that they don't supply equipment for/to beta testing pirates and mercenary units in that sector in return for private and proprietary info and intel on live operational results is a great result for Apple whenever they do stealthy pathfinder development work.

What keeps Mandiant Intelligence EVP Sandra Joyce up at night? The coming storm

Fiddling about around the Edge whilst Rome burns ..... a recipe for guaranteed disaster

Of course, sometimes there remains a disconnect between knowing what should be done and actually doing it. But overall, enterprises are becoming more resilient because they realize the problem is not going away, Joyce said.

Is that a tacit admission that such a catastrophic systemic vulnerability ..... not doing what should be done ....... is acceptable overall, with measures touting and providing resilience in the field the best that enterprises can expect from the likes of a Mandiant Intelligence/Google Cloud ‽ . That sounds like someone is selling expensive [$5.4bn]fake snake oil to me.

And regarding the statement "This problem is getting bigger." ..... is there any problem getting bigger than the following one if nothing effective and remedial is to be done about it ..... or nothing effective and remedial can be done about without fcuking up everything crooked which most probably is the honest truth?

Makes you wonder about who on Earth thought the present system was such a fantastic idea and what sort of folk think it great to mindlessly support and follow to horrendous crash and titanic collapse.

But when a country faces an inflationary problem you can’t just pay more and spend more, you have to find ways of tackling the underlying causes of inflation. .... Boris Johnson

The underlying cause of inflation is the capitalist system's worship and need for profit at every stage of a production and supply cycle [an arbitrary extra sum of money for nothing extra added] which forces the price of everything way above cost and eventually, very quickly, is everything too expensive to buy as every Tom, Dick and Harry adds a crippling percentage price rise on that which they provide.

It aint rocket science FFS.

And as that aint gonna be fixed any time soon, you can expect things to get considerably worse than they are now, with the very real likelihood of mass civil unrest verging on mirroring the likes of the Troubles and the revolutionary, only this time more accurately targeted against a comfortably well off rich enemy.

That's one lesson learned from decades of explosive devices in working districts.

It would be nice to be wrong about that being a possibility but don't be putting any money you cannot afford to lose on it not being so.

That's the coming storm which will do more than just keep the likes of Mandiant Intelligence EVP Sandra Joyce up at night, methinks.

I Kid U Not. Such is the Powerful Current State of Present Energetic Greater IntelAIgent Games Play.

Stew, Hi. National DEFENSE Magazine comments do not appear to allow for the presentation or opening of hyperlinks which many freely provide to supply further relevant information on subject matter entertained in reports aired for viewing with an engaging dedicated provision for further commentary.

Such renders the military industrial base complex servered by the National Defense Industrial Association catastrophically disadvantaged with a distinct lack of timely vital and virulent intelligence on particular and peculiar matters of specific interest to both it and your mainstream audience, the magazine readership.

One can easily understand the reasoning that has many parties terrified and petrified of hyperlinking, but nevertheless, failure to accommodate such strategic tactical play guarantees one is always light years behind the competition and opposition and not in any possible command and control position with novel intelligence which be missing in home action but freely shared for greater incorporation and further development in comments readily available elsewhere on Earth and in spaces foreign.

However, having said that, some information is extremely sensitive and can be explosive, and thus not necessarily well suited to transparent world-wide web sharing without considerable aforethought. But if the information is out there and available, it is wise to realise it will always become visible and well known to a greater number than was ever before thought possible or likely, and in the most inconvenient of cases, most probably sooner rather than later.
