Wow this is wild. Chinese spies did a successful supply chain attack against US companies, affecting Amazon, Apple, US gov contractors, and many others. They implanted a tiny malicious chip into circuit boards during manufacturing

lol
And here is Amazon's unequivocal denial that they found malicious chips, or even that they engaged in an investigation with the government aws.amazon.com/blogs/security…
And here's Apple's unequivocal denial that they found malicious chips in their servers apple.com/newsroom/2018/…

LulzSec hacktivist Jeremy Hammond, who hacked private intelligence firm @Stratfor and leaked data to WikiLeaks in 2012, is beginning his third week in solitary confinement. He's been accused of "minor assault" for bumping a prison guard with a door theintercept.com/2018/12/04/jer…
UN's expert on torture said solitary confinement "can amount to torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment," and called for an absolute prohibition on >15 days in solitary (about how long Jeremy's been there so far) because it can lead to lasting mental damage
Jeremy has been taking college classes through a prison education system, was on track to getting an Associate's Degree next semester. Since he's been in solitary, he's been forced to miss classes, can't turn in assignments, is missing finals

Please don't support prosecuting Julian Assange for publishing. Yes, he's a sexist anti-Semite dipshit who promotes conspiracy theories and secretly collaborates with fascists then lies about it. But precedent in this case severely threatens press freedom freedom.press/news/prosecuti…
The indictment against him is sealed, so we don't know what he's charged with yet. Charges could include conspiracy with GRU or other Russian intelligence agents, or CFAA/hacking crimes. (Probably nothing related to Swedish rape accusations, but you never know.)
But if you want the media to remain a check on government corruption, you can't also support Espionage Act charges against WikiLeaks/Assange for publishing Iraq war logs/diplomatic cables, CIA Vault7 docs, and even DNC/Podesta emails.

They were associated with Richard Spencer, and were activists in Unite the Right and other neo-Nazi/alt-right events since 2016. Here's a detailed article about them idavox.com/index.php/2018…
The criminal complaint against Jeffrey Clark says that his brother Edward Clark committed suicide after the media reported that Bowers was cooperating with federal law enforcement

"Elemental’s servers could be found in Department of Defense data centers, the CIA’s drone operations,
and the onboard networks of Navy warships."
"Multiple people familiar with the matter say investigators found that the chips had been inserted at factories run by manufacturing subcontractors in China."
"One official says investigators found that it eventually affected almost 30
companies, including a major bank, government contractors, and the world’s most valuable company, Apple Inc."

China hardware-hacked Silicon Valley, showing the sheer importance of 'MADE IN USA'.

"The attack by Chinese spies reached almost 30 U.S. companies, including Amazon and Apple, by compromising America’s technology supply chain." bloomberg.com/news/features/…
China committed a Supply Chain Attack against the United States, implanting microchips on servers for Supermicro/Elemental – a hardware hack.

"Nested on the servers’ motherboards, the testers found a tiny microchip, not much bigger than a grain of rice."
Remember the spate of Pacific naval collisions the US suffered in 2017?

From Bloomberg: "Elemental’s servers could be found in Department of Defense data centers, the CIA’s drone operations, and the onboard networks of Navy warships." cnn.com/2017/08/21/pol…
