The Chinese Hack that Stole 22m People’s Data | Cyberwar

We need a Vice documentary on how Vice laid off hundreds of employees while giving out millions in bonuses to their leadership team.

8 years later and nothing has changed

An almost 10 year old video reposted or posted for the first time? It's not irrelevant but I'd love a clear marking of this as archive footage.

"you won't see American companies handing data over to the government" that didn't age well

anything digital is susceptible to a leak, there is no perfect system, your data is always at risk

They have TEMU. Where your demographics and personal information is worth .99 cents. Hacked?

The fact that we get free videos from VICE News on YouTube is priceless, keeping the education and knowledge alive. 🙏🙏🙏

As an Android developer, every time I add support for Huawei devices, the libraries Huawei uses are 95% the same, meaning their contents and 100% function the same as Google's libraries. They are usually just some time behind as they copy it from Google.

The problem is that the US government doesn’t treat the Chinese cyberwar like it’s a war. They invest more in guns than asymmetric warfare.

So this is why I keep getting weird calls, voicemails and text messages from Chinese numbers

keep your private files or computers offline ffs why are important computers with vital files on it allowed to be connected to the internet does not make sense

oh no.. my data... im still FUCKING HOMELESS

So this is like 10 years old?

I think it's practically necessary these days to do "false bribes" within your own company (including government and military) to determine who would be at risk for taking the bait, then you simply fire those people and cut all ties with them. And this should have been happening before now, I think it would have lessened the risk of so many of these breaches that have occurred. And the false bribes would need to be very tricky, like not always the same approach to the employee that way no one ever truly can tell real from fake. Employees and gov personnel would be quite more hesitant to ever consider real bribes this way.

Sf 86 has your whole life info snd all family members, it’s 90 pages and takes 2 weeks to complete. That’s an insane amount of info

People say Computer Science and IT is a dead field when in reality it's more alive than it's ever been. Get as many cybersecurity certificates as you can! Cybersecurity is the future.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the US finance colleges research, then private companies take what was publicly funded and make it private?

So glad that Vice documentaries haven’t been impacted by the recent Vice misfortunes.

Poor corporations

The US may not be flooded with cheap versions of whatever product they steal, but the rest of the world certainly is being flooded with these cheap products. Sadly, we here in Australia seem to not be able to resist the urge to buy cheap chinese products that we neither need or have a use for. Products like the formula for white paint however is concerning and here in Aus we now no longer manufacture our own solar panels due to under-cost overseas imports. Please wake up world and protect your vital manufacturing industries for your own future or your future will be not yours.
