Racist Trump Divides China!

Taiwan: US “Blocks” Mainland China Apps Throughout Colony! (31.1.2026)

The move comes after these apps were placed on a “high-risk” list by the island’s digital affairs authorities to “prevent children and adolescents from exposure to age-inappropriate content” and to address “possible cybersecurity risks.”

The island’s education authorities also warned that primary and secondary schools should not use these apps in teaching activities.

A mainland spokesperson on Wednesday criticized Taiwan’s Democratic Progressive Party authorities for hyping up the so-called information security risks of mainland apps, noting that these measures have deprived people on the island of the freedom to use social networking platforms.

China: Crackdown Intensifies on Misuse of Personal Data! (25.1.2026)

I have been informed the ban is not “blanket” – but rather involves 16 social media sites that are designed for use by adults only. As under-16s should not be on these sites – would a ban matter? The point is that (far-right) White nationalists use adult social media sites to entrap and groom young people – and initiate these unsuspecting minors into Neo-Nazi and neo-fascist propaganda. By banning minors from these adult sites would remove a possible source of recruitment for the far-right. Just as long as our youth is able to still use the net in an appropriate manner – than curbs might not be a bad thing. Even in Socialist China the threat from online criminality – sometimes from outside of China – has been dealt a blow. Twenty-five to thirty years ago – the internet was a free space for sharing – today it has been fully colonised by the capitalists and this has brought an entirely new raft of problems (anarchism was the only problem in 2000 – but that was generally free). Last Thursday – around 200 teenage school-children in Sutton had some kind of tiktok event in Sutton town centre – which initiated a police response and some violence.

Major US Cyber-Attacked Prevented!

China: US [NSA] Planned to Sabotage “Beijing Time” to Disrupt GPS! (20.10.2025)

Besides causing severe disruptions in China, such cyberattacks could lead to international time chaos with incalculable consequences, the agency said in a post on its official WeChat account.

Wei Dong, deputy director of the general office at the centre, said a time discrepancy of just one millisecond can disrupt the sequencing of power substations, leading to widespread blackouts. A difference of one microsecond could result in fluctuations worth billions in international stock markets.

“Furthermore, a nanosecond discrepancy, which is one-billionth of a second, can reduce the positioning accuracy of the Beidou Navigation Satellite System by 30 centimetres and impact everyday communications. And a one-trillionth of a second could cause several kilometres of deviation in the positioning of lunar soil collection vehicles and the Chang’e spacecraft, potentially preventing it from returning successfully,” Wei told China Central Television.

China: US Allegations [& Reports] of Cyber-Attacks – Firmly Rejected! (17.1.2025)

Shen Yi, a professor at Fudan University in Shanghai and a leading expert on cyberspace governance studies, said, “U.S. intelligence agencies have a typical behavioural pattern in hyping cybersecurity governance and national security issues, which is fabricating facts using false and inaccurate information, and fabricating so-called cyberattacks by other countries.”

The objective is to hype security threats and create anxiety, Shen added.

Earlier this month, the U.S. Department of the Treasury sanctioned a Beijing-based cybersecurity company, accusing it of helping Chinese hackers infiltrate U.S. telecommunication systems and conduct surveillance.

US Hinders Its Own Capitalist Process!

China: US Sanctions and Accusations of Chinese Hacker-Attacks – Criticised! (7.1.2025)

Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun slammed the accusations, saying at a daily news conference that China always firmly opposes and has cracked down on cyberattacks in accordance with law. It urges the U.S. to stop using the issue to defame and smear China, he said.

“For some time now, the U.S. has been playing up so-called Chinese hacker attacks and has even imposed illegal unilateral sanctions against China,” Guo said.

Integrity Technology Group said the move by Washington had “no factual basis”, and that it firmly opposes the unwarranted accusations and illegal unilateral sanctions, The Associated Press quoted the company as saying in a statement to the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

US Criminality Worldwide!

US Criminality: Global Cyberattacks & Espionage Uncovered! (15.10.2024)

The method is usually used in attack operations against other countries’ telecommunication and network operators. When the NSA gains control of the targeted telecom network operator’s system, it is able to monitor the target’s cellphone communication content. In the attack against Northwestern Polytechnical University in Xi’an, Shaanxi province, the internet service provider located in China was compromised by the NSA with the “supply chain” attack method. As a result, the telephone calls and internet activities of the victims were tracked by the NSA in real time.

Such an extensive surveillance program requires a substantial annual budget, and with the explosive growth of internet data, the demand for funding is bound to rise, the report said, adding that this is one of the main reasons that the U.S. government, in collaboration with its intelligence agencies, devised and promoted the “Volt Typhoon” operation.
