I did a bit more digging and found some IP ranges published here, agree this is useful info for everyone and should’ve been published more prominently https://news.cgtn.com/news/2025-01-17/China-releases-report-on-U-S-cyberattacks-targeting-a-tech-enterprise-1AeN1twfTqM/p.html

here’s the site where all the CNCERT reports are published https://www.cert.org.cn/publish/english/115/index.html

I very much agree, the platforms have to be qualitatively different in nature to make it worth moving.

coming full circle given that German nazis used US as their model

I mean once you switch off from key things like email, calendar, and cloud storage, then it’s a lot easier to move over to a different device.

lol

And it’s only 2% if the overall economy to boot.

Meanwhile, Chinese economy is already adjusting to the tariffs by redirecting trade domestically https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2025-04-28/trade-war-china-s-e-commerce-giants-are-putting-up-a-fight

So, let’s say they figure this out, US takes the L and drops their tariffs, what Chinese company is going to want to be reliant on trade with US going forward?

Getting off US services is probably the more important part.

Zelensky just sold off Ukraine’s natural resources to the US https://apnews.com/article/ukraine-us-rare-earth-minerals-deal-8566241ea0e121a30437d845357055d8

The US now plans to strip-mine the country’s corpse to recoup its losses. Nothing says ‘democracy promotion’ like colonial looting with extra steps.

Given the sheer scale of state investment, that seems all but inevitable https://www.reuters.com/technology/china-seen-leading-chipmaking-investment-again-2025-semi-group-says-2025-03-26/

Oh yeah, I completely agree that AI is a convenient excuse to do layoffs companies were doing anyways.

Of course, the long-term goal of automation is to reduce labor, but current AI is nowhere near replacing human workers. Right now, it’s just a tool that speeds up certain tasks with, as the article notes, very mixed results. That said, we’ve seen steady increase in automation since the Industrial Revolution without mass unemployment. Instead of work disappearing, it is merely transformed. Portrait painters fade out, camera operators emerge. The jobs shift, but the need for human labor persists, just in new forms.

haha carrier drifting is fun to watch, I can definitely see how they lost a jet doing that

Sure, but these companies just serve as a warning to others, and the hype is already is already dying down. This happens every time new technology appears. There is no structural shift happening with AI meaningfully replacing human labor.

The article talks about a study analyzing the impact of AI on jobs. And what they find is that AI in its current form is not capable of replacing human labor.

The anxiety over job loss actually seems like one of the main reasons. Another big reason seems to be that people are feeling threatened by machines doing things that were thought to be inherently human, which means there’s nothing magical about human cognition.

looks like it might be legit what happened

The effectiveness of Western propaganda lies in its alignment with preexisting biases. When narratives depicting China as inherently oppressive or barbaric are disseminated, they perfectly fit with Orientalist worldviews these people hold.
