Hundreds of Google employees, upset at the company’s decision to secretly build a censored version of its search engine for China, have signed a letter demanding more transparency to understand the ethical consequences of their work.

MAD DOG MATTIS OUT - BLACKWATER IN - The US Troop Withdrawal and the Privatization of the Wars for Israel
As reported in the Military Times - General James "Mad Dog" Mattis is out, and Blackwater Private Mercenary Force says "We are Coming". Eric Prince has repeatedly advocated for the privatization of operations in Afghanistan and surrounding areas. The US Military must operate under the Uniform Code of Military Justice as well as make itself transparent. With BiBi Netanyau selling US Technology to China and Russia working in lock step the Belt and Road initiative appears to have gotten a private corporate fascistic boost in the arm.

In this episode of Resurrect the Republic we connect the dots between Russia China Israel even Iranian collusion in matters many people do not know or understand. The pieces of the puzzle are right out in front of everyone's faces, but are so fragmented and myred in propaganda that they often remain disconnected. Soviet Israel is not the state representing the people many think it is.

Soviet records show a number of agents in high Israeli places, including lawmakers, military engineers and a senior general
This is gold. Israel is so infested with Russian spies removing top secret US technology back to Russia and China ALL co-operation with Netanyahu must cease.
Netanyahu may well be, literally, a Russian spy. A high level general was also implicated.

EVERY AMERICAN NEEDS to HEAR & SEE THIS - MALAYSIA RETURNING as ASIAN TIGER to SPITE CHINA & ISRAEL - Time to Invest?
by Brendon O'Connell
ORIGINAL VIDEO Malaysia will return as the 'Asian Tiger', says Dr M After China was caught (again) backdooring computer hardware (Servers for big corporations) it may be that Malaysia will be set up as a new technology manufacturing hotspot.
Bloomberg:
The Big Hack: How China Used a Tiny Chip to Infiltrate U.S. Companies:
The attack by Chinese spies reached almost 30 U.S. companies, including Amazon and Apple, by compromising America’s technology supply chain, according to extensive interviews with government and corporate sources.
In 2015, Amazon.com Inc. began quietly evaluating a startup called Elemental Technologies, a potential acquisition to help with a major expansion of its streaming video service, known today as Amazon Prime Video. Based in Portland, Ore., Elemental made software for compressing massive video files and formatting them for different devices. Its technology had helped stream the Olympic Games online, communicate with the International Space Station, and funnel drone footage to the Central Intelligence Agency. Elemental’s national security contracts weren’t the main reason for the proposed acquisition, but they fit nicely with Amazon’s government businesses, such as the highly secure cloud that Amazon Web Services (AWS) was building for the CIA.
To help with due diligence, AWS, which was overseeing the prospective acquisition, hired a third-party company to scrutinize Elemental’s security, according to one person familiar with the process. The first pass uncovered troubling issues, prompting AWS to take a closer look at Elemental’s main product: the expensive servers that customers installed in their networks to handle the video compression. These servers were assembled for Elemental by Super Micro Computer Inc., a San Jose-based company (commonly known as Supermicro) that’s also one of the world’s biggest suppliers of server motherboards, the fiberglass-mounted clusters of chips and capacitors that act as the neurons of data centers large and small. In late spring of 2015, Elemental’s staff boxed up several servers and sent them to Ontario, Canada, for the third-party security company to test, the person says.
Featured in Bloomberg Businessweek, Oct. 8, 2018.
PHOTOGRAPHER: VICTOR PRADO FOR BLOOMBERG BUSINESS WEEK
Nested on the servers’ motherboards, the testers found a tiny microchip, not much bigger than a grain of rice, that wasn’t part of the boards’ original design. Amazon reported the discovery to U.S. authorities, sending a shudder through the intelligence community. Elemental’s servers could be found in Department of Defense data centers, the CIA’s drone operations, and the onboard networks of Navy warships. And Elemental was just one of hundreds of Supermicro customers.
During the ensuing top-secret probe, which remains open more than three years later, investigators determined that the chips allowed the attackers to create a stealth doorway into any network that included the altered machines. Multiple people familiar with the matter say investigators found that the chips had been inserted at factories run by manufacturing subcontractors in China.
This attack was something graver than the software-based incidents the world has grown accustomed to seeing. Hardware hacks are more difficult to pull off and potentially more devastating, promising the kind of long-term, stealth access that spy agencies are willing to invest millions of dollars and many years to get.
“Having a well-done, nation-state-level hardware implant surface would be like witnessing a unicorn jumping over a rainbow”
There are two ways for spies to alter the guts of computer equipment. One, known as interdiction, consists of manipulating devices as they’re in transit from manufacturer to customer. This approach is favored by U.S. spy agencies, according to documents leaked by former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden. The other method involves seeding changes from the very beginning.

WHILE EVERYONE WAS DISTRACTED WITH SCOTUS HEARING THIS IS WHAT WAS GOING ON - PROJECTS DRAGONFLY & MAVEN - GOOGLE on the HOT SEAT
RTR TRUTH MEDIA
While everyone was good and distracted by the carnival sideshow the Supreme Court Confirmation Hearing became which asked no actual valid questions regarding any in depth policy decisions, surveillance, Patriot Act, but resorted to frivolous attacks of one's alleged teen years...
... this was going down.
Even the main stream media can not ignore this -
An excerpt from:
CNN -
Google has finally admitted that a "Project Dragonfly" is indeed in the works.
But that's about all a Google executive was willing to divulge
Wednesday about the codenamed plan, which has been widely reported to be
a search product the company is developing for China — one that would
need to comply with government censorship.
The rumored existence of the Chinese search engine
came up repeatedly during a Senate committee hearing in Washington,
where several major technology and telecommunications executives were
testifying about a potential federal law to regulate data privacy.

The New York Times later reported that more than a thousand Google employees have questioned the plan. That criticism is ongoing — The Times reported early Wednesday that a former Google research scientist blasted the Chinese search product in a letter to lawmakers this week.
techcrunch:
In a letter
to the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation, former
Google research scientist Jack Poulson details why he stepped down from
the company in late August. The note, sent earlier this week, details
growing concern over Project Dragonfly, the search giant’s attempt to
enter the Chinese market in a meaningful way.
The
letter arrived as the Senate prepared to question Google’s new chief
privacy officer, Keith Enright, about data concerns. It seems likely
that the subject of Dragonfly will be on the schedule for committee
members. Nearly 1,400 employees signed a letter last month stating that the project, “raise[s] urgent moral and ethical issues.”
“It
is notable that Project Dragonfly was well underway at the time the
company released its AI Principles,” Poulson writes in his own letter.
“As has been widely understood, by human rights organizations,
investigative reporters, Google employees, and the public, Project
Dragonfly directly contradicts the AI Principles’ commitment to not
‘design or deploy’ any technology whose purpose ‘contravenes widely
accepted principles of […] human rights.’ ”
Poulson
highlights four specific issues that have caused concern internally at
the company. The list includes tying search queries to phone numbers and
a blacklist of search terms including “human rights,” “student protest”
and “Nobel Prize,” developed in conjunction with the Chinese
government. The former employee also highlights government control over
air quality data and the “catastrophic failure of the internal privacy
review process.”
Yesterday, reports surfaced that CEO Sundar Pichai will meet with Republican lawmakers to discuss Google’s China plans and GOP concerns over search bias.

General: Project Maven Is Just the Beginning of the Military’s Use of AI
Air Combat Command chief invites tech firms to help
build next-gen tools for the Pentagon. Also says dissent "is part of
being an American."
A top Air Force general said the military
needs to expand its use of artificial intelligence — like that being
used in the controversial Project Maven effort — if it wants to stay
ahead of peer competitors and deter war.Gen. James Holmes, who leads Air Combat Command, is among the first flag officers to publicly defend the Pentagon’s algorithmic-image-analysis program since
Google said it would not renew its contract following an outcry by its employees.
“The benefit of this will be: it will free up people to focus on thinking about what they see and what it means in the intelligence field and on passing that information to decision makers more timely because you’re able to do it faster,” Holmes said Thursday at a Defense Writers Group breakfast in Washington. “That’s a big part of our future and you’ll continue to see that expanded, with Project Maven being one of the first steps in bringing learning machines and algorithms in to be able to allow people to focus on things that people do best and let the machine do that repetitive task.”
Earlier this week, Robert Work, who chartered Project Maven before stepping down as deputy defense secretary last year, said that company employees who worry that the Pentagon’s artificial intelligence will kill people should should consider that it would increase risks for someone else.
“They say, ‘What if the work is ultimately used to take lives? But what if it saves American lives? 500 American lives? Or 500 lives of our allies?” Work said Tuesday at the Defense One Tech Summit.
Holmes said he was concerned that the dustup with Google might prompt others in Silicon Valley to not work with the Pentagon, but added: “this is part of being an American.”
“Americans have expectations about what their government does and whether the government uses technology and tools to infringe upon their rights or not,” he said. “We have really high standards as a nation that that things that we being forward as military tools have to live up to.”
Still, Holmes said the military needs to tap into the technology being developed in the Valley and elsewhere.

Communist China and Environmental Groups Attack US Continental Defense Operations
…we are interested in environmental litigation by U.S.-based 50l(c) organizations against the Department of Defense (Department) and its negative impact on our national security. While some lawsuits represent sincere and justified concerns about the effect of federal actions on the environment, others may be maliciously filed to stop, restrict, delay, or impose additional costs on U.S. military activities.
Introduction by the Editor of the Free Range Report -
On June 13, the House Committee on Natural Resources penned a letter to Defense Secretary, General James Mattis asking for his department to to look into the involvement of hostile foreign entities in domestic environmentalist activism and policy formulation. Referring to this form of foreign attempts to create U.S. policy as “lawfare,” the Committee cites evidence that American environmental special interests, including the Natural Resources Defense Council and Center for Biological Diversity, are doing the bidding of China, a key economic and military adversary.
The body of the letter to Mattis follows (emphasis added):
Dear Secretary Mattis:
The Committee on Natural Resources is continuing its oversight of the potential manipulation of tax-exempt 501(c) organizations by foreign entities to influence U.S. environmental and natural resources policy to the detriment of our national interests. Specifically, we are interested in environmental litigation by U.S.-based 50l(c) organizations against the Department of Defense (Department) and its negative impact on our national security. While some lawsuits represent sincere and justified concerns about the effect of federal actions on the environment, others may be maliciously filed to stop, restrict, delay, or impose additional costs on U.S. military activities. Military experts define, “[t]he environmental subset of lawfare [as] the use or misuse of environmental-protection laws and legal processes as a substitute for traditional military means to achieve objectives.” Adequate infrastructure and training under real-life conditions for our warfighters is critical to military readiness. Given the emerging concerns about undue foreign influence in the United States, the Committee is investigating how foreign adversaries may use U.S.-based 501(c) organizations as knowing or unknowing proxies to engage in environmental lawfare.
In its push to become a global power, the People’s Republic of China has increased competition within the Asia-Pacific region over territorial disputes and natural resources, thereby creating a heightened risk of conflict. In response , the United States has sought deeper engagement in the Asia-Pacific region to guarantee that “international law and norms [are] respected . . . and that disagreements are resolved peacefully without threats or coercion.” China, however, opposes further United States involvement in the Asia-Pacific region through a combination of “intelligence operations, cyberspace operations, irregular warfare, lawfare, and foreign relations.”
A glimpse into the seriousness of China’s intelligence operations in the United States was recently offered by the arrests of a former Defense Intelligence Agency case officer last week, and a former Central Intelligence Agency case officer earlier this year on charges of spying for China. A recent Chinese cyberspace operation was also disclosed last week, when the media reported that Chinese government hackers gained access to 614 gigabytes of highly classified information on a sensitive weapons project, “as well as signals and sensor data, submarine radio room information relating to cryptographic systems, and the Navy submarine development unit’s electronic warfare library.” These latest acts of espionage are “part of China’s long-running effort to blunt the U.S. advantage in military technology and become the preeminent power in East Asia.”
While China’s intelligence or cyberspace operations are more clearly identified when agents or attacks are uncovered as much as an overt act of irregular warfare, its employment of lawfare is inherently more difficult to detect. Some experts believe that China “masks its political motives behind laudable human-interest or cultural projects, blurring the battle line with its adversaries.” Other recent media reports also note that China’s strategy includes “co opt[ing] American influencers in order to promote China’s narrative.” A logical extension and continuation of these strategies, conceivably includes the use of the American legal system to further erode U.S. military advantage, especially in the Asia-Pacific region.
Permanent military installations in Hawaii, Guam, Japan, and elsewhere are critical to U.S. security commitments in the Asia-Pacific region. Military infrastructure projects and training, however, are no more immune from environmental litigation and review than any other federal actions. Military actions in the Asia-Pacific region have triggered lawsuits by 501(c) organizations seeking to halt or restrict Department activities based on alleged violations of various state and federal environmental and natural resources laws.
For example, the impact on marine life from the U.S. Navy’s use of active sonar and underwater explosives has been the subject of several lawsuits led by the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) dating back to the 1990s. In an information paper provided to the Committee, the Navy stated that environmental litigation has “on various occasions unreasonably restricted Navy training and testing activities and do, on a daily basis, limit the time, place, and types of training and testing activities that Navy is able to conduct.” Active sonar is the most effective means of detecting the ultra-quiet diesel electric submarines deployed by foreign navies, such as China’s People’s Liberation Army Navy. The U.S. Supreme Court determined that there has never been a “documented episode of harm to a marine mammal” caused by naval sonar. Nevertheless, the lower courts continue to rule that active sonar may be a “contributing factor” to the beaching, stranding, and injuring of some marine mammals. These conclusions have led courts to enjoin or severely restrict naval training exercises. Most recently, on June 6, 2018, the NRDC appeared before the California Coastal Commission and successfully petitioned the Commission to reject the Navy’s most recent proposed training plans for exercises off the Southern California coast.
In another example, the U.S. Army previously provided the Committee information highlighting the “extensive efforts at considerable cost [that] have been made to preserve, protect, and out-plant [endangered] species [on O’ahu, Hawaii].” Dating back to 1998, the litigation activist group, Earthjustice, alleged that the Army violated the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and filed suit to prevent planned live-fire exercises at the Makua Military Reservation (Makua) in O’ahu.With the exception of a three-year period following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, repeated lawsuits by Earthjustice have prevented the Army from conducting live-fire exercises at Makua for at least,15 years of the last two decades. Makua was described as a unique “space to allow a company of soldiers to maneuver through the terrain while firing their weapons and experiencing the thunderous impact of artillery and other weapons exploding near them.” The then-25th Infantry Division’s Assistant Commander Brigadier General Karl Eikenberry remarked that “You don’t want to experience that sensation for the first time in combat, with all of the other stress you face.”
In 2003, the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD) led a coalition of environmental groups to legally prevent the relocation of U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) Air Station Futenma in Okinawa, Japan, to a less densely populated area. The plan to relocate the air station was devised upon agreement by the United States and Japan that the current location posed various challenges, including those to the health and safety of Japanese citizens in surrounding areas.
