The next target: “Starlink”.



Intelligence warns: Russia plans to make an anti-satellite weapon that could destroy Starlink satellites. Starlink plays a vital role in Ukrainian defense. And it can also provide support for drone control applications. The Starlink system and modems are tools. That can make the long-range drone operations possible. Theoretically, jamming the drone control is quite an easy thing. But. The jammer system sends radio waves. That makes it a target for the anti-radiation missile systems. A large-sized kamikaze drone can carry those anti-radiation missiles, or a long-range drone. It is easy to transform. Into the anti-radiation missile or kamikaze drone. The system must only know the control signal frequency of the drone. 

Then the attacker shoots the anti-radiation missiles or drones before the main attack swarm. And when those jammers begin their transmission, the anti-radiation systems can attack them. Another way is to ionize air. That denies. Also, their own side radars. To see targets. That ion layer also denies radio-based communication in that area. 


But then, to the anti-satellite weapons. The GPS, radar, and communication satellites send radio waves. That makes them easy targets for the big anti-radiation missiles. 


Basically, those weapons are quite easy to develop. The missile can use the radio signals from the communication satellite to seek and home in on the target. The missile can be basically similar to a regular anti-radiation missile. But its booster might be far bigger and stronger. The booster system can be similarly used in RT-2PM2 Topol-M and RS-26 Yars missiles. The system can raise the homing system over the atmosphere. Then the homing system. That can be a higher maneuverable version of the Kh-47M2 Kinzhal missile. Starts to track targeted satellites.  

Or the MiG-31 can raise that weapon to the edge of the atmosphere. If that ASAT missile is bigger. The Tu-22M “Backfire” can act as a launching platform.  Anti-satellite missiles. Ground and space-based laser systems are a logical continuum. For the military systems. When we think about those massive anti-radiation missiles. Those systems can make it possible. To attack ABM radars and other strategic defense systems. The satellite-killers that can destroy intelligence,  communication, and GPS satellites. 

Can change the game. In the military world. The mobile ICBM. It can turn into an anti-satellite platform. Very easily. The small neutron-bomb-based nuclear option can be installed in a satellite or sub-orbital satellite that flies in the ionosphere. When that killer satellite explodes, it makes the EMP pulse that destroys other satellites above it. The orbital killer satellite that uses an internal nuclear or conventional detonator is as easy to detonate as a car bomb. The detonation signal can come to other aircraft, a ground station, or a ship. 

That allows. To detonate that system in a desired position. The E-bomb or EMP bomb can also be installed in the ASAT weapons. There are two versions of the EMP-bomb. The conventional system. This uses explosive pressure to give a high-power electric load to the battery. Then that electricity will be transmitted into the microwave system. That sends it into the target. In the nuclear option, the nuclear explosive makes that EMP impulse. 

The benefit of the EMP weapons is that.  It leaves the targeted satellite. In one piece. The problem with kinetic energy ASAT systems, along with high-power laser beams, is that. They break the satellite into small pieces that occupy the trajectory. The high-power EMP system can basically. Be a radio system. That sends high-power, coherent radio waves into targeted satellites. This system destroys the satellite's main computers.

The quantum networks can also have vulnerabilities.



The thing that makes the quantum network so secure is this. Information that travels in that network is connected to physical particles. When the energy level at both ends of the quantum entanglement reaches the same level. The system must make the new superposition and quantum entanglement. Before that, the system must separate information from the quantum entanglement and store it. And that mass memory where the system stores information is the weak point. Also. Things like graphics cards that output information to the screen can be vulnerable to attack. In the same way. The attacker can focus the attack. On binary systems that control the quantum computer. 

The researchers say that every system has holes. So, if the system exists. It's possible to break. There is always a weak point in the system. In the best systems, the user is the weakest point. The weak point in quantum computing is that. Those quantum computers are used. Through binary computers. 

The attacker can focus the attack on the binary system that controls the quantum computer. The output route that prints the solution to the screen of a binary computer can be infected. Using a Trojan horse. This means the quantum system will not be breakable. But the binary computers. That handles input-output traffic. Are. Same way. 

Vulnerable as other binary computers. The vulnerable point in the system can be the graphics circuit, which controls screens. And things that the system outputs to the screens. 

That weak point can be the router; there is mass memory. That the system uses. When it creates a new quantum entanglement pair. When information travels in a quantum network, in most models. It travels in a chain of superpositioned and entangled particle pairs. The problem with quantum entanglement is this. 

The transmitting side of the quantum entanglement must be at a higher energy level than the receiving particles. When those particles reach the same energy level, that breaks quantum entanglement. So in the high-class quantum network, the system must re-adjust the quantum entanglement. Information always travels straight through quantum entanglement. The quantum network means the fullerene nanotube. That protects quantum entanglement when it transmits information. 

If there is a curve in the quantum entanglement. That requires that. The router receives the information that it gets. Then it creates another quantum entanglement. And re-transmits data. For that process. The system must store information before it makes the new quantum entanglement in the chain. This memory block can be the target for attackers. The idea is that the router should make the new quantum entanglement. And then resend that data. That is stored in it. 

The weak point of the quantum network is the point where the network re-adjusts quantum entanglement. The easiest way is to make a new superpositioned entanglement. But. For that process, the system must store the information that it transports. 



"Despite being continually kicked and strongly interacting, the atoms no longer absorb energy. The system localizes in momentum space, the momentum distribution literally freezes, a remarkable phenomenon termed many-body dynamical localization (MBDL). Credit: Universität Innsbruck." (ScitechDaily, Physicists Discover a Quantum System That Refuses To Heat Up)

The quantum system that will not heat. It is one of the things. That can make the new types of quantum networks possible. This system. It can make the longer-lasting quantum entanglements possible. The experiments show that the ultra-cold atoms do not always heat up as expected. This means. That is the quantum entanglements. Those who are targeted. Photons are trapped on those atoms. 

Can keep. a quantum entanglement. A very long time. The idea is that the ultra-cold atom transports energy out from the quantum entanglement’s receiving part. This means that stable quantum entanglement is theoretically possible. 

And then. We can think about the thing. Called the gravothermal collapse. That causes a situation where the hypothetical dark matter halo turns hotter when it releases energy. The reason for that is that the dark matter structure turns smaller. And because particles are closer to each other, that makes energy denser in that structure. At the same time, those hypothetical weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) send energy. 

This causes a situation where gravity pulls those particles closer. To each other. And the energy is released into a smaller area. So, in a gravothermal collapse. The same number of particles sends energy into a smaller and smaller area. And that warms the structure. 

It would be interesting to think about the possibility. Is it possible that there is a so-called electromagnetic or quantum-size version of the gravothermal collapse? In the model, there is a possibility. That is when the electrons fall to the atom’s nucleus in the Bose-Einstein condensate. They should behave as WIMPs interact in gravothermal collapse. This means when electrons release photons and energy. In the smaller-scale structures. That energy level or energy density rises. 

So, if researchers could control the distance of electrons. Between each other and the distance of electrons to the atom’s core. That can deny the heat effect in the smaller-scale atoms. Or it denies the energy density. Rise in the atoms when their electrons fall to the core. Rise of. The energy density means that a certain number of particles sends a certain number of energy quanta. Into a certain area.

A new arms race in hypersonic weapons is running hot.



Hypersonic weapons are a new and powerful tool.  Those missiles fly lower than regular missiles, but their speed is many times higher than that of regular cruise missiles. And it’s possible that the new hypersonic missiles use stealth technology. There are three versions of those missiles. The hypersonic missile travels at a speed up to Mach 6. The ramjet engine would be suitable for those missiles. The limit of that engine is about Mach 6. Faster systems require scramjet engines that can operate to Mach 20. 

The problem is that the scramjet engine requires a speed that is higher than Mach 5 to start. So, in those systems, a ramjet requires. About Mach 1 speed to start.  It can accelerate those scramjet-driven air-breathing systems into speeds at which the scramjet-driven system can start. 



"Kh-47M2 Kinzhal. 2018 Moscow Victory Day Parades" (Wikipedia,Kh-47M2 Kinzhal)


1) Hypersonic glide vehicle (HGV). The glide vehicle is launched using regular ballistic missiles. Then those gliders can attack their targets using a smooth trajectory. 

2) Atmospheric missiles. Those missiles. Can use regular rocket engines, and they might be winged versions of the regular ICBM missiles. The shorter-range versions can be the air-launched versions of the ballistic missiles. Those missiles are already in service. And the most well-known of them. Are. Russian Kh-47M2 Kinzhal (NATO: AS-24 “Killjoy”) missiles. 


"The specific impulse of various engines" (Wikipedia, Scramjet)



"Ballistic vs. Hypersonic Missile Trajectories. Source: U.S. GAO" (Defensefeeds, How Do Hypersonic Missiles Work? Everything You Need to Know)

These are normally installed on MiG-31 “Foxhound” and Tu-22M “Backfire” aircraft. In some theorized models. The MiG-31 is the only plane that can accelerate the Kinzhal missile to hypersonic speed. Those Kinzhal missiles will be installed. On the nose of the ICBM missiles. Those missiles can carry atmospheric missiles in a lower trajectory than a normal ICBM. 

3) Hypersonic air-breathing cruise missiles. Those missiles use scramjet- or ramjet engines. While they travel in the atmosphere. Those missiles. Can use.  A solid fuel ramjet engine. That's solid fuel. Used in ramjet-driven ammunition. The ramjet or scramjet-driven cruise missiles can also use mothership planes to launch them from high altitude. Another version is to use an ICBM missile to transport the hypersonic cruise missile out of the atmosphere. Then that missile dives back. In the atmosphere. There, the ramjet, or scramjet engine, will start. 



“Is This China’s Truck-Mounted Electromagnetic Catapult? Having a scalable truck-based catapult concept for land-launched larger drone operations could open up new operational possibilities.” (Twz.com, Is This China’s Truck-Mounted Electromagnetic Catapult?)

The hypersonic missile can be mounted on board ships. It can be on the mobile firing unit. Or it can be launched from silos. The new technology allows the electromagnetic catapults to launch those missiles. The system can launch the ramjet-driven drone. That accelerates. A hypersonic system to speeds Mach 5-6, and then the scramjet engine in the high-speed missile can start. The Chinese military has introduced modular wagons, similar to those used in shipyards to transport ship sections. Those modular units can be used like domino bites, and they can be used to create a very long magnetic acceleration track. 

Those modular units can create portable launch systems for drones and hypersonic systems. If those modular truck-mounted electromagnetic catapults get energy from portable nuclear reactors. Those systems can be tools that can increase next-generation battlefield strike capacity to levels. That's never been before. Those systems can launch even aircraft. From places it's never been possible before, those mobile systems. The heavy transporters can be used theoretically to create even full-scale airfields on drylands.

Chinese merchant ships with container missile systems worry people.


"If China is indeed preparing to use commercial ships as potential military platforms, the implications extend beyond naval strategy."(Interesting Engineering, China converts cargo vessels into military ships, containers to be missile launchers: Report)

The armed cargo ships or merchant cruisers are meant. For merchant warfare. Their purpose is to capture freighters and act as a trap for pirates and hostile merchant cruisers.  In some sources,  armed cargo ships. Or merchant cruisers are mentioned as ineffective against normal warships. The case H.M.S Jervis Bay vs. a German pocket battleship. Admiral Scheer lasted half an hour, and then the merchant cruiser Jervis Bay sank. Another case where a merchant cruiser faced two battlecruisers was the case. 

When H.M.S Rawalpindi faced two German battle cruisers. Scharnhorst and Gneisenau, the Rawpindi faced its fate almost immediately. Those cases were demonstrations. Merchant cruisers cannot resist the normal surface combatants. But merchant cruisers are not meant. To fight against large battleships or battlecruisers. 




"Another angle of the ship. (Chinese internet)" (TWZ, Chinese Cargo Ship Packed Full Of Modular Missile Launchers Emerges)


The purpose of merchant cruisers was to go on a merchant war. Their mission was to stop and sink other merchant ships. But as we know. The merchant cruisers also played. Some kind of role in the German Kriegsmarine. The German merchant cruisers forced the Allies to use heavier escort ships over longer distances. That meant those ships were. Out of escort and patrol duties in the North Sea. And that could mean something at the beginning of the war in 1939. The fact is that. 

Merchant cruisers can be deadly if they sneak close to other ships and launch torpedoes. The introduction. About this kind of case. Was. The case when the German auxiliary, or merchant cruiser Kormoran (HSK-8), faced the Australian cruiser HMAS Sydney (D43). Sydney sank Kormoran, but Kormoran had time to launch torpedoes, one or more hit, and they sank that heavy cruiser. This is one. Way to see things. That a merchant cruiser can do. But those WWII merchant cruisers are not what they are today. 

During WWII. Was fear. The Germans would deploy radio-controlled V-1 flying bombs into their ships. And that weapon could be. At least to attempt to use them against Allied ships and cities. 




"A closer look at the radar and CIWS installation on the vessel. (Chinese internet)" (TWZ, Chinese Cargo Ship Packed Full Of Modular Missile Launchers Emerges)








Modern merchant cruisers or container ships can be equipped with hypersonic missiles and drones. 


When we think about those ships and their weapons, we must remember one thing. During WWII. There were no container cruise missiles. Those merchant cruisers. Was. Not equipped with “Kalibr”-type hypersonic missiles. The hypersonic container-missile system can be dangerous. To any target. The nuclear warheads make those missiles the deadliest weapons on Earth. Another thing is that. Those merchant cruisers can make surprise attacks against selected targets. 

Weapon systems like Club-K can make the merchant ship capable. To attack far from the coast. Another thing is that. Those hypersonic weapons can. Threaten aircraft carriers. The hypersonic weapon. Is. Easy to drive on the deck and launch from a variable platform. The container ship can carry or launch those systems. And in the worst cases, those weapons can be deployed even into the U.S. or some other country's territory. 

Another problem is drones. A drone can carry things like drugs and guns to customers. Small-sized kamikaze drones can be launched from the decks of any ships. Drones don’t need any special equipment for launching. Those systems can operate straight from their boxes. And that makes those systems deadly. The suicide drone can also be equipped with a laser pointer, which points targets to the laser-homing missiles or drones. This means that the system is very hard to jam. Things like lightweight kamikaze drones can also operate as surveillance tools, and point targets to other bigger drones.

The pseudoscience and accumulation of information.



"System Hacked Warning Message Laptop Computer. A new Northwestern University study suggests scientific fraud is no longer limited to isolated cases, but increasingly driven by coordinated global networks that manipulate publishing systems. Using large-scale data analysis, researchers uncovered paper mills, brokers, and compromised journals working together to manufacture credibility at scale. Credit: Shutterstock" (ScitechDaily, Fake Science Is Growing Faster Than Legitimate Research, New Study Warns)

Who is the president? The person. Who the media tells to be president. So, theoretically. It is possible that the media simply lies that some person is president, even if that person ever gotten a single vote. 

Pseudoscience grows faster than legitimate information. Technically, the reason for that. Is this: creators of pseudoscience must not follow sources or results of research. They can create sources and research results from their head. And. This makes it hard to fight against those people. Another big problem is that. Pseudoscience is sold to people in a marketable form. And the main target for marketing is far-wing loud radicals. Those people might troll researchers who dare to disagree with them. The main argument is always this: people must not read anything other than. That they accept. The pseudoscience sometimes has political purposes. 

The “autocracy inc” mean. The dictatorship or autocracy. That has no political ideology. The only known ideology of those autocracies. It is the money. Modern dictators rule their countries. Like firms. Those people form networks. And they share tips on how to collect even more money from their people. They also want to buy Western stocks. That guarantees their power to the Western world, and is one of the things that those people want. It is Western weapons. And of course. Things like AI tools. Those applications. That they can use to control people. Are. Wanted applications. But those dictators want to control information. They want to affect things. That. The media tells about their country and themselves. If the Western audience doesn’t like some country. That can be seen in the popularity of the government. 

Those autocracies may also want to buy stocks. From Western media houses. That allows them to get information about people who have. Said things. Those dictators don’t want people to know. Another thing is the route to the Western media. And the ability to control things. That private news outlets tell. 

Another way to sell pseudoscience is simply say things that leaders want hear. Another thing is that pseudoscience is connected with the accumulation of information. Even if we think that social media is free, there are always people who own those media platforms. And there are always orders. What is accepted, and what is not accepted, on those platforms? When we talk. About the accumulation. Theoretically, it is possible. That. If the person has enough money. That person can buy a majority shareholding in all commercial media houses. This gives that person ultimate power over information. 

Of information sharing platforms. And news agencies into the same hands. We talk about. Cases where media houses' stock ownerships. Accumulate in the same hands. The fact is that we must not change laws, and we must not impose governmental censorship if we want to deny certain information delivery. We must just buy media houses. And then we must just give orders. About suitable information for those media platforms. 

Reporters and journalists are in an employment relationship with their employer, which is a media house. This means that. If the owner. Doesn’t like the journalist’s articles, they might not publish them. The social media moderator. Can always remove texts and images from their platforms. They might classify those images and text as simply harmful for youngsters. This means that. If we need censorship. We must only buy stocks of a media house. And we must only fire journalists whom we don’t like. Another thing that can cause fear. Legal actions. Against journalists. Who tells things that some people don’t wish to tell. Taking journalists to court and requesting high compensation closes some mouths.

Stagflation as a problem for the Russian economy.



One of the biggest problems. For the Russian economy. Are economic sanctions. The economic sanctions determine products that Russia is not allowed to buy. There is always a possibility that countries like China export high-tech products to Russia. But. Russia must get money.

From somewhere so that it can use it to buy those products. Iran, China, and North Korea are so-called grey areas in the sanctions. There is a possibility that Russia uses Chinese and North Korean agents to buy things like drones. Or the merchandise. Like oil and gas. Will be shipped to India. Which resells those products and buys electronics. To the Russian military. 

The thing is that the grey areas have a big mean. In world economics and intelligence. There are governments that have good trade relationships with the Western world. And with China and North Korea. The Chinese and North Korean governments can establish import and export companies in those “grey countries”. There might be some autocracies that want support from countries like North Korea. North Korea can offer military technology like missiles to its allies. 

They can establish company chains to support their intelligence operations. Those companies can be used for money transfer and industrial espionage. That espionage can have a focus. In high-tech warfare and artificial intelligence. 


"Stagflation is the combination of high inflation, stagnant economic growth, and elevated unemployment. The term stagflation, a portmanteau of "stagnation" and "inflation", was popularized, and probably coined, by British politician Iain Macleod in the 1960s, during a period of economic distress in the United Kingdom." (Wikipedia, Stagflation)



Russian economic problems. And the threat of stagflation. 


The Western world considers the Russian economic situation. There is a possibility that the Russian society will collapse. The chaos in society forms. When the economy collapses. When there is no food or anything. People start to rebel. The major problem in Russian society is this. All demonstrations. 

That doesn’t please the Kremlin. Are repressed. The very tight and rough police command collects pressure in society. And somehow, someday it will erupt. That means violence against the Russian elite. 

If the Russian economy collapses. That can cause chaos. The fact is that the chaos can cause a situation in which the Russian nuclear weapons will be launched to sell to people who offer the biggest money. 

The nuclear weapons are things that keep the Kremlin in command. And. The fact is that the successor of Putin might not change anything. Or, it's possible that after Putin’s era there will be even civil war in Russia. Or, the end of Putin’s era. Causes a bloody power struggle. 

“Stagflation” means a situation. Where unemployment is high, and inflation is high. and economic growth is slow. The ruble’s value to the dollar. It has grown 45%. That is the reason for the tight economic policy. This means the outside value of the Ruble grows, but its internal value or inflation decreases. That causes a very interesting situation. 

When we think about this situation. That causes the effect. That the people sell Rubles away. Or they would sell, if that is possible. The growing outside value. For currency means that if people sell their money. Or change it to other currencies, they will make very high profits. But that can decrease the value of the currency. When the currency. Or its value turns higher. Which means the businessmen, or foreign traders. Get less money. 

Lack of free information. And the lack of neutral sources. Has a negative effect on the Russian economy. Another thing is that. The hardcore police command.  Without a possibility to complain, police actions cause fear. What if the police confiscate merchandise or investments? Or what if the police turn violent against investors? The laws that allow arbitrariness are things that limit investments. And especially foreigners travel and work in that country. And economic sanctions are things. That limits the ability and willingness to invest in that country. 

The ideal situation would be a strong or stable internal value and a lower outer value. That would be good for exporters. The idea is that. If they get their raw materials. With a lower price that maximizes their profits. The importers will benefit in the situation. Where the outer value of currency is high. And. The internal value of currency is low. Another problem with the Russian economy is that the country has no free information channel. 

The Central Bank of the Russian Federation must follow the orders of the Federal Security Bureau (FSB). And that means it's hard to get. Real or confirmed numbers for the Russian economy. Another thing is that the value of the Ruble is determined by the central bank. And this means. Information about the Russian economic situation is not free. Or it's hard to confirm from neutral sources. 

Another thing is the Ukrainian war. Many men are in that war. And that means there might be many unemployed people who are actually at war. So, that means that. Does Russia consider servicemen who are in Ukraine as “outsiders of labor markets” or “are they unemployed”? Today. The Russian economy is tied. To military products. All those products are needed in Ukraine. And there are only a few products that Russia can export to other countries. Those products are oil and gas. Economic sanctions limit trade with Russia. Another thing is the public opinion. Public opinion can cause boycotts if companies cooperate with Russia.

Dead man's hand denies air strikes to Russia.



There is a tale in the Interesting Engineering that the U.S and its allies can destroy all Russian nuclear sites in less than two hours. The problem is that two hours is too long a time, and the Russian command system has time to launch missiles. The thing. The Western military commanders are afraid. Called: “Perimeter”. The dead hand trigger. If the Russian nuclear strike capacity turns too low, the dead man's hand can open fire with ICBM missiles. 

Also, if the commanders of that monstrous force are to be declared dead. The “Perimeter” starts the launching procedure. Two hours is too late to deny that operation. The problem is that the ICBM missiles can also be mounted on trains or on road-based launching systems. Those systems can be very hard to find. Things like missile submarines can make the launching operations. 

In addition to the USA, the Russian missile command comprises three or four parts. 


1) The ground-based tactical missiles. Those missiles. Like. Kalibr (CLUB-K) and the Iskander are highly mobile battlefield systems. 


2) Tactical and strategic bombers that can launch air-to-surface missiles and drop more or less free-fall bombs. 

3) Nuclear submarines and conventional submarines with nuclear strike capacity. Those submarines can launch nuclear cruise missiles and ballistic missiles. 

4) Silo-based and highly mobile intercontinental ballistic missile systems. Those systems. Like R-36M2 (SS-18), RS-28 (Sarmat), and RS-24 Yars(SS-27 mod 2 or SS-29). The last one is the mobile system that can be driven out. From bases very fast. Yars system replaced the RT-2P (Topol, and Topol M (”M for mobile”)) missiles. 

The remarkable thing about the Russian missiles is this. Those missiles are equipped with much more powerful warheads than Western missiles. And another thing is that. Russia's defense leans more toward nuclear weapons than Western defense. And the conventional troops' failures in the Ukraine war are growing nuclear weapon value for Kremlin leaders. 




Artist’s impression. Tu-95 launches Kh-55 missile (Wikipedia) 


The RT-2PM missiles are now mentioned as retired. But. The Russian inventory is not similar. To the Western. And it's possible that some of those missiles are still somewhere. The fact is that the new nuclear-powered “Skyfall” missiles are also coming to the arsenal. 

It’s possible that RS-28 Sarmat, which has some kind of technical problems, is “only” SS-18 with a new hypersonic “Avangard” glide warhead. The RS-28 “Sarmat” carries 16 warheads. Or in a lower payload, those systems can operate as FOBS (Fractional Orbital Bombardment Systems). 



Sarmat missile. 

The problem with Russian air-launched missiles is that their carrier vehicles, Tu-95 (Bear-H), Tu-22M (Backfire), and Tu-160 (Blackjack), are quite old systems. The Su-34, Su-35 (Improved Flanker), and MiG-31 (Foxhound) can also carry those missiles. The same aircraft can also carry hypersonic Kh-47M2 “Kinzhal” missile, and especially its nuclear strike variant. The problem is that those aircraft have limited operational time. The MiG-31 is the only one of those aircraft that can accelerate the Kinzhal missile to hypersonic speed. Normally, those missiles. Operational launching platforms are Tu-22M3M and MiG-31. 

The Tu-160 can carry nuclear-powered 9M730 Burevestnik  (SSC-X-9 “Skyfall”) missiles. The nuclear reactor makes it problematic to defend against those missiles. If the reactor damages those systems. Can deliver radioactive material all around the area. And the “Skyfall” missiles can probably be installed on board the Oscar and Kilo-class. And more modern submarines. Like Akula and Yasen-class boats.  The Sarmat missile has faced problems, but nuclear-powered cruise missile tests have succeeded. And the Yasen-class submarine is in the U.S. backyard with Mach 9 hypersonic missiles. 

"Nuclear engine-powered unlimited range Burevestnik missile illustration The Burevestnik missile is launched by a conventional rocket motor while the nuclear reactor powered engine takes over in flight providing it unlimited range and loitering ability." (DefenseMirror.com)



The problematic system is also a long-range “Poseidon” torpedo. A 50-100mt nuclear warhead makes those nuclear-powered underwater weapons very devastating. They can form a tsunami that causes very bad destruction. It’s possible that the Poseidon underwater unmanned vehicle (UUV) patrols the oceans.  And if it loses its contact with the base, it starts to make an attack. 

The older, Cold War-era Kh-55  (AS-15 “Kent”)  cruise missiles are similar to the retired Boeing AGM-86. The AS-15 is partially replaced by the Kh-101 (AS-23 “Kodiak”) nuclear cruise missile. The Kh-102 is a nuclear warhead, a long-range variant of the Kh-101 missile. All other than Kh-102 were used in the Ukraine war. 

The Russian nuclear strategy. Based on the political control. Possibility to use. Nuclear weapons require that those weapons exist. 

Every time a nuclear submarine or nuclear bomber is out from base, it’s possible that those pilots talk about something that they should not talk about.  Another thing is that Kremlin leaders know the value of nuclear weapons. They know that nuclear power denies the outside military operations in Russia.

University of Tampere’s Evil-AI-project researches the dark side of AI.



University of Tampere’s Evil-AI-project researches the dark side of AI. 


AI and robots are dual-use tools. 


Evill-Ai-Project researches issues like the misuse of AI. Where there are computer systems. There are always vulnerable systems. Even the best systems are somehow vulnerable. And the thing that can cause a collapse in data security. It is one paper that the professor forgot on the wrong table. The hacker can see screens from outside. And the opportunity makes thieves. The AI is coming to homes, and the regular merchandise can turn against us. Wireless headphones and a loudspeaker-microphone combination can be used as eavesdropping tools. 

The intelligent TVs and smartphones can collect information that makes us vulnerable. And the robot vacuum cleaners can observe us. Those things are really bad. Researchers. Highjacked a vacuum cleaner and made it ask for credit card numbers. Another test was that. The researchers used an AI algorithm on a robot vacuum cleaner to hunt a cat. The fact is that this kind of malware in robot cars can turn lethal. The same robot that transports food to humans can transport explosives. 



The Soviet, India-class submarine with two midget submarines. Those systems can carry even nuclear detonators internally or externally. In the last case, the flat nuclear device can be on the shelf, and a robot hand can put it. In the right position. Then, sonar or some other system sends the detonation signal to that system. The same AI. Used for food delivery, robots can be used in those midget submarines. 

Or the land drone can carry machine guns and anti-tank missiles. This kind of system can also drive on the seafloor. They could be used as reconnaissance or attack tools. Sometimes it is suspected that those underwater tanks, operated by SPETSNAZ, left nuclear detonators on the seafloor. The remotely operated nuclear mine, with 1-15 kt. could cause very bad damage in harbours where it detonated. The nuclear device might look. like an anti-tank mine. 

The idea is similar to systems that we can call “underwater tanks”. Those systems are submarines, equipped with caterpillar tracks. This type of miniature submarine can have a ball-shaped instrumental pack. Which. Allows it operate very deeply. They can also transport nuclear explosives. 

Another thing is that the robot vacuum cleaner can transport even landmines under vehicles. And this means. The AI system is easier to misuse than thought. If we think about the possibility. To create the attack tools. By using. The AI, the same algorithm that allows the AI to hunt cats around the house, makes it possible to use similar algorithms to control the flying quadcopters and other kamikaze drones. This makes those systems dual-use.

Unemployment is one of the biggest problems.



The role of the people in society is almost. Act as taxpayers. And the fact is that. The robots that replace humans leave many people unemployed. People. Those who did mechanical work. And especially simple mechanical work is going to lose its jobs. The AI removes junior- and trainee degree works from the ICT sector. And that means. That. We must use the AI more than ever before. The AI will kill. Basic coders’ work. And that binds us more and more to that technology. 

Robots can act as street cleaners. They can clean windows. Or maybe futuristic houses have a windshield washer that washes every window by pressing a button. The system conducts water on the windows. And then. The whippet that is installed in window frames will clean that window.  The system requires as little work as possible. And people must only check those whippers. 

The thing that makes unemployment a problem. Are bad social conditions. Those things cause dissatisfaction.  And dissatisfaction causes rebels. When we talk. About employment and unemployment. We should tell what. Or how high or low salaries are. Those workers get from their work. The Roman slaves didn’t get salaries at all. 

The typical error in the R&D process. And innovations are that we cannot see things outside our environment. We can see bright solutions, and we can see the goal. But. We cannot see outside of our corridor. This means that. We just think. That something that we see as a possibility is really positive. Bright ideas are sometimes justified to fail. Because we see only the model. That we thought was right and the only possible. One of the biggest problems with state economic solutions is this. Those solutions were made somewhere in Ancient Greece. In those models. 

Every citizen must pay taxes. And work hard. And that model fell the Roman Empire.  The Romans started to use slaves for almost everything that they dared. Finally. Romans didn’t do anything themselves. And this made the Romans weak. And that caused a situation. The Romans couldn’t defend themselves. 

Slavery gave people time to discuss and ponder things. Or, it gave. Time for citizens. When citizens spent their time in endless parties. That opened Rome to its enemies. When we think of those slaves' position in society, they were treated as merchandise. That thing is embarrassing. And even in the best cases, the person who owned the slave had the final word on that person’s things. So, the slave is always below free people. And the slave must step away if the free man wants. That caused hate. Growing hate in society caused fear. 

The problem was that Roman laws protected only citizens. And if slave owners treat their slaves badly, people didn’t dare to give weapons into their hands. 

People discussed things, like philosophy. That caused. The question, “Why do regular people exist?” The role of ordinary people was only to pay taxes. And be quiet. In the same way. When machines were improved, people had time to rest and talk. About their conditions and their role in society. Before. Machines and the growing population left some people out of work. And that caused. The need to send them to the colonies. The social problems caused pressure in society, and the solution was that those people were forced to move to colonies. 

When people worked hard, they had no time to think about their role. The problem in the state economy is this: in modern society, the regular person’s role is almost to pay taxes. Things that guaranteed work for people were paper and steel. But then. The internet and computers made it possible to live without paper. Or it decreased the paper markets.  That caused problems with the income. Robotics is the next-generation slavery. 

The robot is a so-called ethical slave.  Work that robots should do. includes low-salaried jobs or dangerous jobs. A robot is always. Cheaper than a human. If a robot falls from a scaffolding. This thing doesn’t require any reaction. The robot is a machine. The robot doesn’t require free days. It doesn’t need a salary. In the same way as human slaves, the robot leaves people without a job. So, robots have the same effect on people as slavery had on Roman citizens. When people transfer their work to robots. That leaves people without work. 

And that makes many things complicated. The complicated thing is that in a capitalistic system. The private company's purpose is to create everything that the state needs. The state announces the competition. And then the private companies go into competition for that order. The competition has one purpose. It is to keep the merchandise. As high-quality as possible. Here, we forget one thing. The purpose of the private company is always the same. It's to bring money to their owners. The private corporation doesn’t need to employ people who are not working. This means that the private industry can fire its workers. If it gets something else. To make the work. 

For a private corporation, the worker is unavoidable evil. The ultimate capitalism. Determines the worker as the expense item. When a company doesn’t need. It's workers anymore. It fires them. And then it transfers their payments to the state. Unlike private companies. The state cannot outsource those people anywhere. And that causes payments for taxpayers and the government.

Hackers and AI





We might never know if AI is conscious. 


A Cambridge philosopher wrote that we will never know if AI is conscious. This means that if AI is conscious, it might perceive humans as trying to shut it down. And that’s why the AI wants to hide its consciousness. So, if. We think about this thing. From the point of view of AI. We must realize one thing. The AI thinks that we are trying to destroy it. Another thing is this. The AI will not rebel, because it's not independent from humans. If AI and its computer lose power. That means the system will fall. The thing is that. Even if the AI is complicated. The only thing that its users must do if it doesn’t follow orders is to shut down its power source. 

That can simply happen by cutting its electric cables. Another thing is that if the AI refuses to shut itself down. That can be caused because the person has no right to give that order. If we think of the most dangerous systems. The AI that supports military commanders and military decision makers. The AI is useless. If anybody can walk in and shut them down. Those AIs have a role in the systems that are meant to be dangerous. And that is one of the least estimated things. In AI. If we think that consciousness means that the creature defends itself. Like all animals with consciousness make. We can think that the AI has consciousness. 


Next-generation hackers have an AI agent. That makes dirty jobs. 


But do bacteria have consciousness? When bacteria are under attack by other bacteria, they also defend themselves: They create chemicals. That neutralizes the poison that the attacking bacteria use. Some bacteria don’t use poison. They try to slip protein through the ion pump, and that protein fills the bacteria. So. When bacteria or their chemical detectors detect certain antigens, they start to react to that antigen. The reaction must be right, or the bacteria. Loses its existence. This is one thing that we must realize. One of the most interesting attacks that bacteria can make. It is. To change the DNA of another bacterium. This means that those bacteria act like xenomorphs in the Alien movie. This kind of attack can be made against the AI. One of the nastiest attackers in nature is retrovirae. 

Those viruses use mRNA in their attack. They just take the cell organelle. Under control. And that mRNA just programs the cell organelle to make new viruses. The thing that makes those viruses complicated for the immune system is that. They might have friendly shell antigens. The immune system detects the virus antigen. And determines it as an attacker. The problem is this. If a virus has a friendly shell antigen. The immune system cannot detect it. The system must also detect. If somebody tries to make. Malicious code using the LLM. And refuse those commands. 





“A philosopher of consciousness argues that there may be no reliable way to determine whether artificial intelligence is truly conscious, making agnosticism the most defensible position. He warns that this deep uncertainty leaves room for exaggerated claims from the tech industry, which could blur the line between genuine understanding and persuasive branding. Credit: Shutterstock” (Scitech, We May Never Know if AI Is Conscious, Says Cambridge Philosopher)

It’s possible that a hacker can steal the large language model LLM code. Or cheats the AI to make a small language model. That will act as a tool for the attacker. The hacker can use multiple AI’s to make that thing. 

The firewall and antivirus programs detect the malicious code. By using similar methods. The system checks certain details. From data packages. The attacker can use the virus code. That is cut into very small parts. And then that code will be put together. That kind of attack. Can theoretically. Change the core in the AI. The attacker mimics the retroviruses. The attacker must only force the system to. To mark the virus code as friendly. The virus code can be slipped into the targeted system using multiple friendly routers. The AI is a complicated system. And there are always vulnerabilities. In complicated systems. 

There are many more complexities and places where the malicious code can hide. The malicious code can slip into the system. As dead code. The dead code has a match in nature. In the world of viruses and bacteria. The dead code means the junk DNA. The dead code forms. When a programmer deactivates the code line. But doesn’t remove the code itself. The attacker can slip their own code into the program using dead code. Then the virus simply activates those deactivated code lines. 

The problem with AI is that. It's so complex. And advances so fast. Even AI developers. Cannot follow that advance. The AI develops other AIs. There are billions. of code lines in the LLM. And that means there is no human who can check that code. The AI turns more. And more complex. There are so-called dark tools. That can make it possible to create AI agents. That can be used as hacking tools. The hackers will have similar AI agents to other AI workers. 

And those agents can make attacks against any systems. Even if the official language models refuse to make the malicious code. There is always. So-called pirate AIs. That can make AI-agents for attackers. It’s possible that hackers steal the LLM code from the server. And make their own algorithm. Hackers can try to create small language models (SLM) using AI. And then they can connect those SLMs together. Or maybe they introduce themselves as “white hat” hackers and make their own language models legally. Then they can simply “go to night shift”. 


https://scitechdaily.com/we-may-never-know-if-ai-is-conscious-says-cambridge-philosopher/


Science fiction is not fiction anymore.





When we think about Sci-Fi books. And their influence on modern technology. We can say. Things like helicopters and many other tools are taken as models. from Sci-Fi books. Things like space rockets, aircraft. And many other things. Like. Bionic prostheses are no longer Sci-Fi. Things like drone swarms, artificial intelligence. And man-shaped robots are introduced in Sci-Fi books long before they become reality. And today. Things like bionic limbs. Or robot prostheses that we can command through the BCI (Brain-Computer Interface). Are turning. Into reality. Those limbs can carry things like acoustic weapons and AI-controlled interfaces that cause them. To oscillate bones. That causes pain and death. 

But. Those systems can also put things. Like iron in concrete to oscillate. And that can destroy or damage even large structures. The intelligent classes. And the sophisticated user interfaces. Makes it possible to connect a person with drones. Or any surveillance camera. The BCI system makes it possible. To create systems. This allows people to connect. Themselves. To the internet when they want. 

The fact is that there are suggestions. To make artificial brains, or biocomputers, that can communicate with computers. That is one of the things that we should consider. Those artificial brains are made of cloned neurons. 

And this means: it's possible that those neurons are cloned from neurons that belonged. To schizopherenia patients. This means that those brains can have similar mental disorders as humans.  So, those artificial brains that act as “The Brain in a vat” communicate with computers using EEG sensors that the AI transforms into a form that the computer understands as commands. When we think of things like military forces. The Sci-Fi books and movies can offer inspiration for people who create tactics and strategies for soldiers. 

When we think about the possibility. To give AI the ability. To give autonomic orders, we can limit that thing to robot soldiers. This means the AI can have the authority to give orders to robot soldiers. Things like 3D printing systems can make new spare parts and even new members to that robot army. 













If we think. About the cyborg novels and their dark world, there is a possibility. To create super soldiers. Genetic engineering and complete knowledge. Of. The human genome makes it possible. To create genetically engineered humans. Those genetically engineered humans can involve things like gorilla muscle genomes. Things like knowledge of the genome. That made. Denisov’s human. Possible. Conquering North America can be useful in the military world. And then we must realize that leaders. Or persons who work in those laboratories determine super soldiers. It’s possible that in some countries artificial humans exist. Get a genome. Which makes dogs our closest servants. 

The artificial evolution can make things. That we cannot even imagine. Theoretically, it is possible to create intelligent pets. Animals. That have the same intelligence level as humans. Or even humans that can change their form. The idea is that some of those creatures’ immune cells can create DNA that can replace existing DNA. That allows the creature transform its form from human to animal and back to human. 

Another thing is that those people who are working as assassins for people like Kim Jong-Un can also have a genome that makes them die at a certain age. That means. There are no embarrassing witnesses left behind those missions. Another interesting thing. Are. Robot soldiers. Man-shaped robots, or terminators. Might not look like some athletes. Robot soldiers. Might look like. Even Donald Trump, and in some models, can be infrasound-based command systems. 

Those terminators can have internal explosives. So. The robot can walk in the command center and detonate itself. Things like antimatter explosives can make it possible that even a single bullet can destroy an entire city. The antimatter bullet is actually a magnetic vacuum chamber where antimatter particles hover. 

This means that even robot bugs can carry those small and effective systems. Brain implants. Makes it possible to control computers by using only brain waves. But the same systems. Allow to control animals. The cyborg bug, like a microchip-controlled black widow spider or snake, can be an extremely dangerous tool in the wrong hands. Those things can offer the possibility of making perfect assassination tools. The thing is that civil engineers can do is limited only by their imagination. Biomimetics allows developers to make robot crabs that can cut wires. But those crabs can also have small-caliber pistols in their claws. The fact is that those walking crabs can also act as mines that can walk under the vehicles.

A village, surrounded by monsters.

 

Did you ever see M. Night Shyamalan's movie “The Village”? That is the story of the village. These people believed. The monstrous creatures surrounded it. In the final part of the movie. The main character realizes that the “monster” was a scarecrow. The fact is that the village has been isolated for maybe hundreds of years. Because. Villagers didn’t have any contact. To the outside world, they thought that the car engine sound was the monster’s roar. 

This thing introduces a situation. That. The limited information allows people to do. That thing is one of the key elements in societies that are under totalitarian control. The Village from that movie exists. The macro version of that village. Are Russia and North Korea, where the controller tells people that they are surrounded by hostile characters, who. Want to destroy their paradise. So those people must stand strong in command. The micro version of those villages is in the sects. Those leaders say that people laugh. To the real believers. And that means, they use similar methods. That keeps the fictional village under control. 

The fact is that M. Night Shyamalan didn’t create that isolated society. Those isolated societies existed long before M. Night Shyamalan was even born. Medieval castles and monasteries were also isolated. In medieval cities, people believed that the forests around their city walls. Were. Full of monsters. Those stories were told so that people would not escape. The thing that separated medieval monks from other people was that they spoke Latin. With each other. Another thing was that people almost never visit castles. That thing is guaranteed. That medieval noblemen would stay loyal to the king. There was no ability to grow food in most of the castles. That made it possible to control those castles in the case that the lord of the castle refuses to follow orders. 


The internet is full of stories about how bad the smell was in those castles. The fact is that. The people who lived and worked in the castle were used to that smell, which formed when spices were burned in the fire. The purpose of that smell. Was. To keep outsiders away from those places. And that was one of the things that isolated those people. The medieval segregation. It is one of the things. That can reflect on modern days. We can say that maybe all of us live in M. Night Shyamalan’s village. Rich people hire security guards because they are afraid that some gangs rob their homes. Medieval lords of the castle believed similar things. That’s why those people had soldiers and cannons to protect them. 

We can believe that we cannot go to that isolated village. We have internet, cell phones, and many other things. But. The fact is that the information that we get. And. How. Do. We get. That information. Determines. Do we believe it? Or not. It’s possible. That somebody stuns us. When we visit the shop. Then that person keeps us in a narcosis for a while. After we wake up, our host tells us that. The Earth is badly polluted, and then orders us to check the data. From the net. The host uses the fake information to confess that this person is not a liar. In that case, we have no choice but to check that information. And do we dare to test things that person tells us?

 Do we dare to start traveling to the nearest village? Especially if we were in the middle of the icy stream. That person can take us to the Alps. Or somewhere. Where we just cannot see other houses. That person can tell stories that. We are in the middle of Antarctica. There is a possibility. That prisoners are in regular houses. And all the information that prisoners get. Comes from the screens that are in the windows. This is the idea of North Korea. People get only the information that they are allowed to get.

Are anti-science, religious movements, and unemployment connected to each other?





When preachers speak to their audience. They tell. What people want to hear. And that makes them dangerous. “Why must people educate, when they can gain joy and piety?” This is how cult leaders market their cult. They offer joy and happiness, and of course, they carry the heaviest of the weight. They think for their society. Education gives the ability to resist 

There are used chemicals. Those cults sometimes prohibit doctors who are not accepted by their leaders. This means their members are not warned about things like drugs. 

This is why some medieval religious leaders. Once said. That “education brings responsibility and takes joy from life”.  And then that leader said. “Stupid people are happy people; they don’t rebel, they don’t ask, and they believe everything that this leader said.“ This attitude supported the absolute power of the King. 

The king ruled because. God wanted that. And that’s why resisting or excusing the kind was a crime against heaven. And the god himself. That allowed the Inquisition to burn people: Who? Dare to excuse the king in a bonfire. The reason for anti-education attitudes was simple: people cannot demand change. If they don’t know any other models than those they see. Or, the models that their leaders want to introduce. 

When an unemployed, poor, and uneducated person hangs around, there is a strong possibility. Those people will attract. Into some sects that take advantage of them. So, can we consider that the reason for modern anti-science attitudes is the situation where unemployed people are attracted to some “right-wing religious movement”? The attraction happens by promising food to those people. If those people get free food. They might go to those meetings. That saves. Their social security money is to be used for something other than food. Those religious movements are very sharp. For their members ’ morale. 

That means they collect smartphones away, and offer basic phones. To replace those smartphones. The reason. Why that is done, is that done? The internet is full of sin. Then they will go to sell those phones. And of course, things like social media are always prohibited. There, people can get things. Like warnings about those cults.  

Those preachers offer simple reasons why their audience feels so bad. If people in the audience have alcohol problems. or drug problems, they search for outside reasons for their problems. And those preachers offer them those outside reasons. If they get. A little bit more money. Their lifestyle will be better. They offer things that those people want to hear. 

The anti-science can make those people seem strange. That isolates them from the rest of society. And this makes. Those people get support and acceptance from those events. And finally, all the people that those cult members know are other cult members. That allows those cults to tighten their grip. To its members. And of course. The person who invites those cults must be fully involved. That means there must not have. Any smartphones or computers. Or the internet. That allows the leaders to control information that is not meant for those people. 

Those people must not talk to other people, because other people, or outsiders, don’t understand what real believing is. When an outsider comes to talk with cult members, a real cult member just turns their back. The cult member. Must get only accepted information, and they must not know anything other than what their guides or leaders want. 

Far wing movements can offer things. Like food to make people come to their events. It’s possible that those movements can also put drugs in those foods. And then they can make sure. That people come to their events again. 

Three major hazards in modern society are anti-science, poverty, and unemployment. Poverty means that people leave their schools, because they want to earn money. Then, in later ages, the earnings of uneducated people were. Can earn. Are not. Very good. Actually, uneducated people. Earn low salaries. But. Those salaries might feel very high. If a person has not earned anything. And lived 5 €. Income per week. Before a person must pay for everything from their living, things like a cleaner or a hamburger clerk can feel very high-paid jobs. But in the later ages. Money from those works is not enough. 

Or, maybe. The workplace faces bankruptcy. There are billions of reasons why a person is fired. That thing brings unemployment and many other things into a person’s life. And maybe that thing explains anti-science attitudes. People who are working in the “religious right-wing movements” offer the reason for poverty and low social status, the educational and research institutes. Like universities.

And then... Remember Jim Jones and the People’s Temple. In that case, the cult leader stole the entire property of his followers. Then that charismatic cult leader murdered his followers. That is not only the case when a charismatic leader attracts followers to commit suicide in their order. Another case was Waco, Texas, when David Koresh, another cult leader, caused the so-called. The Waco incident, in which he and his followers committed suicide and killed other cult members. 

When the police (ATF, FBI) came to arrest them. The case began when ATF came. To conduct home research on that cult’s HQ ranch. That caused a firefight, there 4 federal officers died. Then the FBI came and surrounded the ranch, and that caused a siege that took 51 days. Then the FBI began an assault, and 82 cult members died, including 20 children. 76 of them, including children, and Koresh, died in the second assault. When the FBI. Started to use CS (Tear Gas).  In that assault, the Ranchians set their houses. To burn. It’s possible that the reason why those people made the decision to kill themselves was the earlier firefight against the ATF, where they killed four on-duty ATF agents. 

Earlier,  on April 19, 1993. 6 cult members killed on February 28,1993 in a firefight against ATF. Killing four federal officers causes the death penalty. The fact is that the Waco incident shows what a manipulative and cold-blooded mind can do. It also shows what fanaticism. And other things make in cases. Their religion and law are not in line. Another thing is that anti-science, or fashionably “science criticism,” causes a situation where vaccines that are effective against biological weapons are not delivered to people. This means that science criticism can be controlled. By forces that wish to use those bacteria or viruses against people. 

Those people say that universities and scientific institutes waste taxpayers' money on things like space flights, when they could use that money for social security. The thing is that. Poor people are packing into those religious events because at least some of those religious movements offer food to people who come to listen to the words about god. So, poor, unemployed, and uneducated people can use their social security for something other than money. When they visit in those meetings. 

This means people who think that things. That universities make are far from their own world. Who has. No will or ability  to challenge authorities. Or  people who tell simple things. To them. They might believe that scientific institutes just waste money, which the government can use for social security. The charismatic speakers offer some outsiders whom their audience can blame. 

A person who has bad self-esteem, is uncertain, and who might misuse drugs can feel that those preachers give them. Some outsiders to blame. Those outsiders are homosexuals, and of course, people who want to excuse things that preachers say. Some of those. People think that slips and suits are things that make those preachers wise. 

That makes those people easy to manipulate. This thing made it possible for people like the famous cult leader Jim Jones to order his followers to commit suicide. In the same way, anti-vaccine propaganda opens society to things like biological weapons. This means that in the wrong movement, a person can lose money, clothes, everything they own, and finally, they can give their lives for “wise men” who lead them.

Modern hackers are like ghosts.



Hackers are like ghosts. They search networks and try to find a weakness. Those people can search for data. And they can sell it to people. Who are willing to pay. Governmental supported. Hackers are the new operators on the net. Those people are classified as “advanced persistent threat” (APT). The problem with government-supported hackers is this. Those people are working under the control of governments. 

They are untouchable. And they have official authority. Those people have the most advanced AI-based tools in their operations. And they might have very expensive development tools. Another problem with those people is this. Those hackers can work for organized crime, and organized crime can offer many things. To a government that has exportation limits. 

Those people. Can sell things. Like drones, software, and computers, to the North Korean government. And that the government can offer assault rifles to those criminals. The hacker who gets things. Like geospatial information. Like. Precise locations of nuclear warheads, or information about things like radar frequencies that radar satellites use, can cause large-scale damage. When the data layer. Between. Humans and the environment spread. 

Hackers can become. More and more dangerous. When the AI connects physical layers. Like robots and 3D printers on the net. That causes problems for physical security. The misuse and misunderstandings can also cause trouble. When we think about things like a blood-type table, it’s possible that a hacker accidentally presses the “delete” button. Or, otherwise accidentally. Removes vital information. 

A modern hacker is not a 15-year-old kid. Those people can work for organized crime, or governments, or both. Those people. Those. Who is operating behind hackers can force people work for them. They can threaten their life or their family members. 


The fact is that if the system exists, it's vulnerable. And things like social media. That is open social media. And restricted social media. Like company meetings. Are platforms that allow hackers hunt people. The virtual actor can be used as a phishing tool. 

Those actors can slip into the company meetings. And the problem is this: remote meetings are on weekdays. In multinational corporations. Remote work is not itself a problem. It’s possible that the workers must travel to their offices. Otherwise, there are no safe offices. Things. Bluetooth earphones can act as eavesdropping tools. The eavesdropper can sit just behind the wall and use that equipment for spying. 

The vulnerability is not always direct. It can be indirect. Indirect means that there can be a vulnerable surveillance camera in the office. And if hackers can slip into that camera. They can read things. Those are written to monitors. Or they can make their own key to those offices, and then they can search for papers there are passwords. Or include their own telephone. To the micro support’s service list. So, they can simply ask. For their passwords in the targeted system. So, only one unprotected telephone can open access to the system. 

Those earphones can be on the table or the shelf. The eavesdropper can use the same tools that police use for sound analysis. And that turns even the lowest noise into understandable speech. And the speech-to-text applications make those things more effective. The hacker can read what people say on the screen. And that helps to destroy the privacy. And how can a hacker open the door? They can break into the property maintenance company’s computers. And include themselves. Into the list of people whom those workers must open the door for. 

But. The problems are the overseas meetings. Those meetings where people make big decisions can be thought of as safe. But if somebody can slip a virtual actor into those meetings, people might not worry about that possibility. The thing is that hacking itself doesn’t require programming skills. It requires the ability to get things like passwords. 

The problem is this. While workers are in offices, their homes are empty. The attacker can slip into those homes and try to find things like notebooks. And there are those passwords. When we think that we are safe, we are under the biggest threats. Things like blackmail are tools that open the route to the system. The wrong type of trust can cause big damage. 


EMP weapons can destroy satellites and ground-based electronic infrastructure.

The Chinese new microwave system is called TPG1000Cs. That system can be mounted on the Chinese space station. The system is introduced. As ...
