Re: How Russia hacked the Democrats email

If you want to rant for or against Trump, do that in the "How Crazy is Donald Trump" thread.

This thread is about following Russia's methods, procedures, successes and consequences for electronically attacking the USA's electoral system from 2016 until today.

It appears Russia started to plan for this attack some time in 2015 and used WikiLeaks as an agent to distribute stolen and damaging information.

Actually the hacking started way before that... China is another one that has had MAJOR hacking breakthroughs.. but they are working on stealing Intellectual properties and info to gain more power.. but, hell all countries do it.. and I do mean ALL.

Was-there-a-connection-between-a-russian-bank-and-the-trump-campaign

In June, 2016, after news broke that the Democratic National Committee had been hacked, a group of prominent computer scientists went on alert. Reports said that the infiltrators were probably Russian, which suggested to most members of the group that one of the country’s intelligence agencies had been involved. They speculated that if the Russians were hacking the Democrats they must be hacking the Republicans, too. “We thought there was no way in the world the Russians would just attack the Democrats,” one of the computer scientists, who asked to be identified only as Max, told me.


The group was small—a handful of scientists, scattered across the country—and politically diverse. (Max described himself as “a John McCain Republican.”) Its members sometimes worked with law enforcement or for private clients, but mostly they acted as self-appointed guardians of the Internet, trying to thwart hackers and to keep the system clean of malware—software that hackers use to control a computer remotely, or to extract data. “People think the Internet runs on its own,” Max told me. “It doesn’t. We do this to keep the Internet safe.” The hack of the D.N.C. seemed like a pernicious attack on the integrity of the Web, as well as on the American political system. The scientists decided to investigate whether any Republicans had been hacked, too. “We were trying to protect them,” Max said.


Max’s group began combing the Domain Name System, a worldwide network that acts as a sort of phone book for the Internet, translating easy-to-remember domain names into I.P. addresses, the strings of numbers that computers use to identify one another. Whenever someone goes online—to send an e-mail, to visit a Web site—her device contacts the Domain Name System to locate the computer that it is trying to connect with. Each query, known as a D.N.S. lookup, can be logged, leaving records in a constellation of servers that extends through private companies, public institutions, and universities. Max and his group are part of a community that has unusual access to these records, which are especially useful to cybersecurity experts who work to protect clients from attacks.

I agree but China is a different threat to the USA. While Russia attacked the USA's electoral system, China is attacking by theft the USA and its industries intellectual properties. At first I thought President Trump was wrong about adding tariffs on China's imported goods but I now think he is correct. The only way China will stop is via economic pain. Unfortunately, most of that pain will be passed onto American consumers in the form of higher prices. Tariffs are another form of taxes.

Eventually China will lose some of its manufacturing base to other friendlier countries as companies are forced to relocate to non tariff nations.

Just a few days ago the USA Justice Dept indicted two Chinese nationals for industrial espionage.

Re. Surveillance or Paranoia.

When their sitting atop of their self proclaimed global empire, only cold empty loneliness and constant paranoia is their friend. That constant back of the mind Paranoia that someone is coming to bring them down from their gloated mountain top, which creates a fear of being labelled those a loser.

In their effort to release themselves from their own self generated tormenting paranoia and disdain of low-lifes, the bogeyman (AKA big brother) will eventually fulfill their global AI computer system on all continents. That system will force a mindset of paranioa entrapment and torment onto all other living beings. New global wide laws will be enacted so that every living breathing entity will be treated as a criminal, with no legal rights nor free will of passage through life. Consciously tormented people will not live nor behave the same as freewill contented peaceful people. Machines do not have a sense of purpose,feelings nor emotions. Computational machines only compute black and white, an no AI algorithm will ever compute the emotional grey areas of the human psychi. The machines they have already created will degrade the will of the human spirit, and over time will trap the entity soul-force to the density of this sphere. Those who have created the force-of-will AI machines will in affect be trapping their own life force soulful spirit into the same millennium of damnation.

Yes, you are correct industrial espionage is not unique to China and has been going on for a very long time.

China, however, has taken industrial espionage to whole higher level than any other nation. China has a stated policy called "Made in China 2025". It is China's objective to dominate specific high tech industries with the primary objective of leap frogging one of the West's main advantages: technological superiority.

China's plan to achieve this goal includes overt industrial espionage seeking IP (intellectual property) either by theft of forced technological transfers when a Western hightech company wants to market or manufacture in China.

Re: How Russia hacked the Democrats email

Trump is right (I will burn in hell to say those words) on China with his tariff theories but the execution of those theories is poorly thought out. It basically punishes Americans with higher taxes when containers enter the Port of Los Angeles (aka container tariffs).

Back in summer 2018, most companies with Chinese production facilities, overstocked their USA warehouses before tariffs hit in Oct 01 2018. A lot of that inventory has moved out to distribution and resupply is right now incurring a 10% increase in prices.

Prices have already increased by 10% to Americans on new washer and dryer machine purchases,

The copier industry should start seeing USA price increases sometime very soon. That includes parts and consumables made in China.

This response is way off topic.

To redirect back to topic, 100% both the Russians and Chinese are in 2019 dedicating high levels of state industrial espionage resources to attack the weakened USA caused by the Trump Presidency.

A lot of speculation? Is Trump, the Manchurian Candidate? He appears to have a lot of compromising economic liabilities to Russia.

Trump probably is no compromised friend of China.

There are definitely Russian oligarchs with direct ties to Putin in Trump Tower paying above market prices.

Re: How Russia hacked the Democrats email

The Blame game:

When the entire world stops giving their own individual money away to overseas companies, they will finally realize that their own local neighbourhood economies will again improve.

Example:
Suppose I have a 100 zoobars(fictitious wealth) in my escrow account(bank); an I give all 100 zoobars away to a foreign company for cheap purchases, how many zoobars are now circulating in the neighbourhood local area?
Simple answer, 100 less than yesterday.

When all the personal and business zoobars are gone from the entire country where does the next item of purchase come from? The foreign companies now have possession of every one of your countries zoobars.
(Your country is now officially broke and floundering in serious foreign zoobar debt.)
The next purchase comes from the foreign company who will purchase all your local neighbourhood businesses and property assests.They will give you back your zoobars for a cheap purchase price and obtain(free-will) total ownership of your country.

Cheap overseas purchases are one of the major reasons why local business is failing.

Moral of the story...
DO NOT BLAME OTHERS you/me chose (free-will) to give our local wealth away.

You paid the Ferry-man.

This is what happens when we live in a dollar store economy. People want things to be cheap, they don't care how long it lasts. So we get things made in China to satisfy this need for cheap things.
I first look to buy things made or grown in my own country.
I refuse to buy garlic or mushrooms or anything else grown in China.

Those countries with the cheap labour sources will rule the capitalist world. India is the next predicted cheap labour source.
Can India outdo China's cheap labour resources? Can China build and further maintain its economy during the India capitalistic rise to rule?

Re. Buying foreign products cheap, cause and effect.

All people in failing capitalistic countries may need to learn how to be humble and work side-by-side cheaply so as to out do the shift in world power economies.

This type of "financial humility" will reach the point of "survival first" if we as people fail to recognize and develop the required tolerance to our brethren. More laws and prisons will not fix the required failing economies. Peoples basic instincts will drop down into survival mode. It is somewhat sad that people only come together during a time of suffering and hardship. It is perplexing how war is the catalyst that brings the necessary human aggregation,motivation and self discipline required to overcome a latent adversity.

Technology can ease the burden, but we all need to work together to recognize the required pathway for the localised beneficial changes.

We all wanted to be lazy and get it cheap-as-chips for little effort, an innate fact in all of us.
