00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:03.319
<v Speaker 1>Hey there, tech enthusiasts, ting here your go to gal

2
00:00:03.399 --> 00:00:07.120
<v Speaker 1>for all things China and cyber Shenanigans. Buckle up, because

3
00:00:07.160 --> 00:00:10.039
<v Speaker 1>the US China tech tussle has been on overdrive these

4
00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:13.359
<v Speaker 1>past two weeks. Let's kick things off with the juicy

5
00:00:13.359 --> 00:00:19.000
<v Speaker 1>stuff cybersecurity drama. The notorious Chinese hacker group salt Typhoon

6
00:00:19.079 --> 00:00:22.920
<v Speaker 1>has been added again, compromising five more telecom providers globally,

7
00:00:23.199 --> 00:00:27.480
<v Speaker 1>including two in the US. They've been exploiting unpatched Cisco

8
00:00:27.559 --> 00:00:31.320
<v Speaker 1>edge devices like there's no tomorrow. Meanwhile, the US Treasury

9
00:00:31.399 --> 00:00:35.479
<v Speaker 1>dropped the hammer on Joe Shwai, a Shanghai based hacker extraordinaire,

10
00:00:35.759 --> 00:00:40.200
<v Speaker 1>for illegally snagging and selling sensitive US data. Talk about

11
00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:43.359
<v Speaker 1>a digital gold rush gone wrong. But wait, there's more.

12
00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:46.840
<v Speaker 1>The US isn't just playing defense. They've slapped a hefty

13
00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:50.439
<v Speaker 1>twenty percent tariff on all Chinese imports, and Beijing's not

14
00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:54.039
<v Speaker 1>taking it lying down. They've retaliated with their own fifteen

15
00:00:54.079 --> 00:00:58.000
<v Speaker 1>percent tariff on US agricultural goods and added ten American

16
00:00:58.039 --> 00:01:02.280
<v Speaker 1>companies to their Naughty List ac the Unreliable Entity List.

17
00:01:02.840 --> 00:01:05.640
<v Speaker 1>It's like a high stakes game of economic ping pong.

18
00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:10.200
<v Speaker 1>Now let's talk policy. The Trump administration is gearing up

19
00:01:10.239 --> 00:01:13.159
<v Speaker 1>to face the China threat head on. Secretary of State

20
00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:17.200
<v Speaker 1>Marco Rubio called China our greatest geopolitical adversary in his

21
00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:23.319
<v Speaker 1>confirmation hearing. Meanwhile, DHS Secretary Christy Noam highlighted China's extremely

22
00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:27.400
<v Speaker 1>dangerous cyber espionage campaigns. It's like they're preparing for a

23
00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:31.680
<v Speaker 1>digital Cold war. Industry wise, it's been a roller coaster.

24
00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:35.719
<v Speaker 1>Chinese AI company Deep Seek is making waves, challenging US

25
00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:38.799
<v Speaker 1>dominance in the field. It's got Deutsche Bank calling it

26
00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:42.560
<v Speaker 1>a Sputnik moment for AI and China. On the flip side,

27
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:45.519
<v Speaker 1>US companies are feeling the heat from these new restrictions.

28
00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:48.359
<v Speaker 1>It's like trying to innovate with one hand tied behind

29
00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:53.519
<v Speaker 1>your back. Looking ahead, experts are predicting more turbulence crowd strikes.

30

31
00:01:56.840 --> 00:02:01.040
<v Speaker 1>hundred and fifty percent surge in China's cyber spage activities.

32
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:04.439

35
00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:15.120
<v Speaker 1>war is far from over. It's evolving, intensifying, and spreading

00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:19.599
<v Speaker 1>to new frontiers like AI and quantum computing. Both nations

37
00:02:19.639 --> 00:02:22.680
