Welcome to your Daily Detroit for Monday, December 2, 2024. Jer Staes and Fletcher Sharpe get into the latest happenings in Southeast Michigan. As we approach the end of the year, we reflect on resolutions, goals, and unexpected developments in the city. Our first story revolves around General Motors' bold announcement to demolish Detroit's iconic Renaissance Center if public funding isn't secured for its renovation plans with Dan Gilbert's Bedrock. The proposal faces skepticism from lawmakers and pushback from local architects and preservationists. Jer and Fletcher debate whether this threat is a bluff and discuss the potential impacts on Detroit's skyline.

The company, formed from the merger of PSA Group and Fiat Chrysler, faces significant financial challenges and a search for a new leader. The discussion touches on the future of iconic brands like Jeep and Chrysler and the evolving automotive market. Why did they let Chrysler lose their swagger? The Anna Scripps Whitcomb Conservatory on Belle Isle is set to reopen on December 4th. This historic gem, designed by George Mason and Albert Kahn, has been a beloved part of Detroit since 1904. We get into its rich history and the excitement surrounding its reopening. In sports, the Detroit Lions bolster their defense by signing former All Pro safety Jamal Adams. Despite recent injuries, Adams' versatility is seen as a valuable addition to the team. Fletcher Sharpe provides insights into what this means for the Lions' defense. Finally, we turn our attention to the Detroit Pistons. Despite a 9-13 record, the team is showing promise. Fletcher highlights the impact of players like Cade Cunningham and Malik Beasley, as well as the positive changes under new coaching. There's hope for a playoff push as the Pistons continue to develop and grow. Daily Detroit shares what to know and where to go in Metro Detroit every single day on our podcast and newsletter.

En long, en large et en chemins de traverse Bookmakers #30 - L'autrice du mois : Laura Vazquez.Née en 1986 à Perpignan, Laura Vazquez écrit des poèmes, parfois peuplés d'êtres minuscules et de corps endommagés, publiés en revues, qu'elle lit depuis le début des années 2010 sur la plupart des scènes poétiques de l'Hexagone, traduits en chinois, anglais, espagnol, portugais, norvégien, néerlandais ou arabe. Son premier roman, « La Semaine perpétuelle », sorti en 2021 aux éditions du sous-sol, est distingué d'une mention spéciale du prix Wepler et vendu à dix mille exemplaires. En 2023, elle obtient – à 36 ans – le Goncourt de la poésie pour « Le Livre du Large et du Long », une « épopée versifiée » de 400 pages, en cinq actes, écoulée à cinq mille exemplaires. Elle vit et travaille à Marseille. Laura Vazquez (3/3)Pour résumer « La Semaine perpétuelle », son premier roman, Laura Vazquez écrit : « On y trouve des fantômes, des insectes, des téléphones, beaucoup de pourriture, le corps mort d'un oiseau, des éponges, des personnes qui n'ont plus beaucoup de dents, de la crème, un veau qui pleure et qui s'endort, des rires du Moyen-âge, des enfants contre des murs, des chiens jumeaux, la douleur en personne, des moines dans la neige, des émojis qui rient aux larmes, des robots, des chansons, des pilules calmantes, parfois dieu, un peu de lumière, une fontaine, des croutes. » Dédiée à son chat, cette « Semaine » dure effectivement une semaine – dans la vie de Salim, un adolescent cloitré dans sa chambre, qui poste des poèmes et disserte sur le monde en direct de sa chaîne YouTube, jusqu'au jour où son inquiétude pour sa grand-mère adorée le force à réintégrer la réalité. Sous ses vidéos, les commentaires s'enchaînent, comme les histoires de cette corne d'abondance de bizarrerie, où les images peuvent blesser, où toute chose possède un esprit. Dans ce troisième et dernier épisode, nous évoquerons aussi l'énigme du « Livre du large et du long », où l'héroïne se coupe un doigt « pour parler à un ami » et pour lequel Laura n'a « pas été loin de perdre la boule » ; sa première pièce de théâtre, « Zéro », une « tragédie lesbienne » à paraître en novembre toujours aux éditions du sous-sol ; ou un autre ouvrage à venir aux éditions sun/sun, inspiré d'une photo du musée Albert-Kahn de Boulogne-Billancourt.

Contribution de Bérénice, qui a suivi nos ateliers organisés avec le Pôle d'Interprétation de la Préhistoire. Ces ateliers ont été l'occasion de mettre en son des photos réalisées dans la vallée de la Vézère par Albert Kahn en 1917. Bérénice nous propose ici une description poétique et sonore de l'une de ces photos.

Hey all! Welcome to another episode of Mr. P.'s Tales from the Road! In this edition, I jump into teacher mode and learn you a little bit about the man who designed so many of the abandoned factories that we explore today, a fella by the name of ALBERT KAHN. No, not related to Genghis, but, as he was called, the "Architect of the Colossal," and "Detroit's Architect," he was one of the main guys behind the scenes of America's industrial explosion in the early 20th Century. A little something different this week; history abounds, so grab an ice cold fizzy beverage of choice, get some burgers on the grill for the Labor Day weekend, listen in and enjoy the show! Have a great extended weekend and we'll see you in next week's episode! -Mr. P. MR. P. INFO: The majority of my work gets published at the Mr. P.

Modernités sud-américaines », qui retrace un voyage d'affaires que le banquier et philanthrope Albert Kahn entreprit en Argentine et au Brésil d'août à octobre 1909.Pour clore sa séquence inaugurale engagée avec l'exposition Autour du Monde, c'est à un nouveau voyage aux origines que vous convie le musée. Ce voyage est celui du passage à la couleur, avec particulier les premières autochromes réalisées hors de France à l'instigation d'Albert Kahn, dans la période précédant le déploiement à grande échelle du projet des Archives de la Planète. L'exposition présente des images inédites de ce fonds peu connu, dans un parcours immersif et pédagogique qui prend pour toile de fond l'explosion urbaine de ces jeunes nations sud-américaines résolument tournées vers l'Europe.Le « Voyage en Amérique du Sud » entrepris en 1909 par Albert Kahn, suite à son voyage autour du monde (1908-1909), est singulier par plusieurs aspects. Dans l'histoire de la collection, c'est le premier témoignage conservé de l'utilisation du procédé autochrome hors de France ; et pour l'histoire de la photographie au Brésil, ce sont les premières images en couleur connues du pays. Pourtant, ces images – 683 clichés, essentiellement des plaques stéréoscopiques noir et blanc, un film, et une soixantaine de plaques autochromes – ont été longtemps peu documentées. Aucun témoignage écrit ne subsiste, et l'identité du ou des opérateurs demeure inconnue. L'exposition tisse alors le fil du voyage et celui de l'enquête, remettant au premier plan le travail de contextualisation historique, sociale et esthétique mené par les équipes du musée.Entre balade sensible et analyse d'images, la narration se veut immersive, exploitant le pouvoir d'émerveillement des images en couleur, les nombreux détails des images stéréos et le mystère qui les accompagne. Le visiteur est placé au coeur d'une recherche à travers un fonds d'images documentaires, longtemps muettes, qui retrouvent ainsi leur voix.Le parcours de visite suit la chronologie du voyage et débute à bord du paquebot König Friedrich August. Après cette introduction maritime, les visiteurs découvriront, dans une déambulation visuelle et sonore, d'étonnants portraits des villes d'Amérique du Sud transformées par les grands travaux urbains du début du XXe siècle et empreintes d'une modernité aux influences européennes, comme une anticipation du développement à venir des mégalopoles du continent.La seconde séquence est une balade en images sur les hauteurs de Rio.

“Claire Glorieux”Ce qui me point – Résidence de créationau musée départemental Albert-Kahn, Boulogne-Billancourtdu 17 janvier au 30 avril 2023Interview de Claire Glorieux,par Anne-Frédérique Fer, à Paris, le 16 janvier 2023, durée 15'25.© FranceFineArt.https://francefineart.com/2023/01/16/3368_claire-glorieux_musee-albert-kahn/Communiqué de presse Pour sa première résidence de création dans la salle des Plaques, le musée départemental Albert-Kahn invite Claire Glorieux à concevoir une œuvre originale à partir des Archives de la Planète.Au cours de sa période d'immersion dans les collections, Claire Glorieux a fait sien le concept de « punctum » défini par Roland Barthes comme « ce hasard qui me point (mais aussi me meurtrit, me poigne) » dans une photographie. En s'attardant ainsi sur ce qui pique son attention, la plasticienne livre une œuvre personnelle et sensible autour des collections du musée. Elle associe, aux images choisies, quelques mots explicitant ce qui l'a point dans chacune.L'artiste propose une œuvre composée de dioramas conçus à partir des Archives de la Planète et d'images personnelles. Objets fragiles empilés, alignés, accumulés, ces dioramas témoignent de la démarche de mettre le monde en boîte ainsi que la profusion d'images et de la diversité des lieux et personnes photographiés dans les Archives de la Planète. Claire Glorieux crée ses dioramas à partir de boîtes d'allumettes, objets du quotidien symbolisant à la fois la lumière et l'écriture photographique ainsi que la destruction et disparition attachées aux archives. Chaque boîte est éclairée d'une ampoule dont l'intensité varie. Le laps de temps d'éclairage des dioramas fait écho au temps de prise de vue photographique. Si le feu éclaire les choses, il est aussi responsable de leur disparition. L'installation est complétée par une vidéo en stop-motion où des allumettes se consument et relaient la lumière, métamorphose des archives qui se transmettent de génération en génération. Tandis que la combustion finale rappelle la fragilité des documents que le musée conserve aujourd'hui (film en nitrate hautement inflammable, plaques de verre). Hébergé par Acast.

À l'occasion de la réouverture du Musée départemental Albert Kahn à Boulogne-Billancourt, en région parisienne, on part sur la planète, haute en couleurs et en images, de ce banquier philanthrope iconoclaste et visionnaire du XIXè siècle. (Rediffusion du 10 avril 2022) Le voyage c'est « garder les yeux grands ouverts », disait celui qui, en 1898, une fois sa banque fondée, va créer sa première entreprise philanthropique : les bourses « Autour du monde ». Ces bourses de voyage de 15 mois, financés par Kahn, étaient alors destinées à des agrégés français, hommes d'abord, femmes et étrangers ensuite, dans l'idée de modifier le regard des élites, de les décentrer et les ouvrir au monde par l'expérience et l'immersion. Né en 1860 dans une famille juive alsacienne, Albert Kahn va orchestrer ensuite, au début du XXè siècle, une entreprise de collecte et d'inventaire de la beauté et de la réalité du monde, unique son genre : les Archives de la Planète. 72 000 autochromes,180 000 mètres de pellicules cinéma et 4 000 plaques stéréoscopiques noir et blanc vont être ramenés par une douzaine d'opérateurs, véritables aventuriers de l'image envoyés dans plus d'une cinquantaine de pays.  Un siècle plus tard, ces images sont saisissantes par leur couleur et l'intimité qu'elles dégagent encore, l'autochrome étant le premier procédé photographique en couleur naturelle inventé en 1903 par les Frères Lumière. Les films, en noir et blanc, obtenus eux à l'aide du Cinématographe créé aussi par les Frères Lumière en 1895, offrent de fascinantes fenêtres sur l'état du monde au début du XXè siècle, entre progrès techniques, Première guerre mondiale et temps coloniaux. Aujourd'hui, dans le Musée départemental Albert Kahn qui a rouvert ses portes en avril 2022, ces images se dévoilent dans une nouvelle muséographie et des espaces entièrement repensés par l'architecte japonais Kengo Kuma, situés sur l'ancien domaine de 4 hectares du banquier. À l'époque de Kahn, les lieux, aux allures de campus, servaient de base arrière à son projet philanthropique tourné vers un idéal de paix et de progrès, de fondations en bourses de voyage, d'imprimerie en laboratoire de biologie ou de développement de films. Aujourd'hui, ces lieux servent d'écrin à de nouveaux espaces permanents et temporaires d'exposition, qui offrent une plongée inédite dans l'œuvre et la trajectoire hors-norme de cet homme. Un homme insaisissable en quête de lumières et d'harmonie qui finira ruiné par la crise de 1930, et qui aura finalement passé toute sa fortune et son temps à défendre une meilleure connaissance du monde et des peuples, afin de garantir la paix et l'entente, sa grande œuvre, son idéal envers et contre tout.   Un reportage de Céline Develay-Mazurelle.

Um arquivo inédito com imagens impressionantes daquelas que são, provavelmente, as primeiras fotografias a cores do Rio de Janeiro, então capital do Brasil, em pleno século 19. O tesouro, presente na exposição "Rio em cores e em relevo", em cartaz no Museu do Novo Mundo, em La Rochelle, no oeste da França, saiu direto da coleção do mecenas Albert Kahn e teve curadoria do historiador francês Laurent Vidal, estabelecendo um diálogo histórico com a iconografia e a coleção do museu francês. Em novembro de 1555, o navegador francês Nicolas Durand de Villegagnon inicia uma colônia francesa na entrada da então Baía de Guanabara, construindo o forte de Coligny. Mas por causa das infindáveis disputas entre católicos e protestantes (huguenotes) sobre a natureza da Eucaristia, a tentativa francesa - conhecida como a França Antártica - acabará em meio a conflitos internos, em 1559, e será destruída pelos novos e definitivos colonizadores: os portugueses. Histórias como essa que ligam a França às Américas fazem parte do Museu do Novo Mundo de La Rochelle, no oeste da França. "Essa exposição nasceu de uma ideia do historiador Laurent Vidal de trabalhar, ao mesmo tempo, a fotografia antiga francesa do Brasil, fazendo uma conexão com a coleção de fotos do Museu do Novo Mundo. Considerei essa proposta bastante pertinente, e então buscamos imagens que pudessem servir de suporte para uma exposição do tipo", explica Mélanie Moreau, curadora da mostra e diretora de museus de Arte e de História da cidade de La Rochelle. Conexões "O arquivo do museu Albert Khan nos inspirou, desejando simultaneamente falar sobre a história da fotografia, além de mostrar as primeiras imagens coloridas do Rio e o passado desta cidade que ainda nos inspira, apesar de ter se transformado. Além da possibilidade de criar conexões com as temáticas do Museu do Novo Mundo", diz Moreau. "Na verdade, a ideia não é resgatar essa história, mas apresentá-la. O museu é voltado para as Américas do Norte e do Sul, e existe uma vontade verdadeira de explicar os períodos-chave que marcaram essa história, sejam as primeiras explorações francesas, ou o tráfico negreiro; e, no que diz respeito à América do Sul, o Brasil é um eixo muito importante", diz a curadora francesa.  "Existe essa ideia de explicar que existiu uma tentativa de colonização francesa no Brasil do século 16, uma tentativa que não deu certo, e também o fato do país ter conhecido o tráfico negreiro relativamente tarde, sendo o Brasil um dos últimos países a abolir a escravidão, em 1848. Uma história que nos interessa, porque tem a ver com as temáticas abordadas pelo museu", aponta Moreau. Olhar fotográfico da França sobre o Brasil Para o historiador Laurent Vidal, "esse olhar tem uma verdadeira relação entre a França e a fotografia no Brasil". "O primeiro aparelho fotográfico que chegou ao Rio foi um daguerreótipo francês, em 1840. Em janeiro daquele ano um abade francês fez uma das primeiras fotos do Brasil, neste aparelho que havia sido inventado em 1839", lembra. "A palavra 'fotografia' foi inventada por um francês residente no Brasil, na época na província de São Paulo. E essas fotografias que atualmente apresentamos aqui são as primeiras em cores do Rio de Janeiro", destaca Vidal. "E, entre esses fotógrafos, há muitos franceses ou descendentes de franceses, como Marc Ferrez, que realmente participaram da criação de um olhar francês sobre o Brasil", afirma o historiador. Laurent Vidal destaca alguns momentos marcantes da exposição, "como as fotos em cores que mostram a exuberância da paisagem carioca e como a cidade nasce, a metrópole nascendo em torno desta paisagem". "Em segundo lugar, o acervo mostra o nascimento da metrópole moderna, com suas avenidas, os funcionários etc. E o terceiro ponto, que para mim é talvez o mais importante, são as imagens que mostram justamente aquilo que está desaparecendo, como o universo dos pequenos trabalhadores, o que remete a uma velha história, bem mais antiga, quase colonial. E também as fotos mostram a população preta na cidade. Uma população que, apesar de ser livre, é uma população marginalizada, é um olhar sutil sobre essa população", afirma. Uma iconografia carioca Além disso, o especialista destaca a importância da coleção para a "iconografia carioca". "Essas quase 200 fotografias eram desconhecidas, então é a primeira vez que são apresentadas ao público e é verdadeiramente um conjunto da obra. Forma uma fotografia sobre um Rio [de Janeiro] nascendo, em termos de metrópole moderna, e um Rio que desaparece. E o momento em que se passa de um lado para o outro é fascinante, verdadeiramente fascinante de ver. Eu acho que é um elemento importante na construção da memória carioca", sublinha. Para a secretária de Patrimônio e Museus da prefeitura de La Rochelle, Anna-Maria Spano, "essa história da escravidão aproxima a cidade de La Rochelle ao Rio e ao Brasil, assim como o fato de serem cidades de vocação marítima". "Sou historiadora da cidade, e é muito interessante descobrir lugares que existiam antes e que desapareceram, descobrir o que ocupa atualmente seu lugar. Além disso, reconhecer essa história de transformação social das cidades", aponta. Spano lembra ainda que as semelhanças entre as duas cidades não param por aí: "La Rochelle é também uma cidade de frente para o mar, no meio do Golfo da Gasconha. Sua história começa com o comércio marítimo no século 12, e é uma tradição que continua até os dias de hoje nesta grande marina [de veleiros], uma dos maiores da Europa. É também uma cidade de navegadores, de campeões que deram a volta ao mundo", lembra. A exposição "Rio em cores e em relevo" fica em cartaz no Museu do Novo Mundo de La Rochelle até o dia 3 de abril de 2023.

Livia Manera Sambuy"Il segreto di Amrit Kaur"Feltrinelli Editorehttps://www.feltrinellieditore.it/A pochi giorni dal funerale del fratello, Livia si ritrova in un museo di Mumbai, davanti all'immagine di una giovane donna avvolta in “un sari impalpabile e traslucido”, una principessa indiana. È vero, come legge nella didascalia che accompagna lo scatto, che la principessa ha venduto i suoi gioielli per salvare vite di ebrei? E che per questo è stata arrestata, ed è morta in un campo di concentramento?“È così,” scrive l'autrice, “che è cominciata quest'avventura: come un lampo di curiosità in un momento della mia vita in cui il senso di perdita era così intenso da oscurare sia il passato sia il futuro. Desideravo saperne di più. Desideravo capire che cosa avesse spinto una principessa del Raj a lasciare l'India per Parigi negli anni trenta; e soprattutto desideravo scoprire che cosa l'avesse trattenuta là finché era stato troppo tardi.”Istintivamente, visceralmente, Livia si lascia coinvolgere nel mistero, perdendosi nella storia del Raj britannico, tra i diamanti e gli zaffiri dei suoi palazzi, tra i balli e i giubilei dell'aristocrazia del Novecento, e nelle vite di personaggi straordinari come il maharaja Jagatjit Singh di Kapurthala, il banchiere ebreo Albert Kahn e l'esploratore russo Nicholas Roerich, tutte tessere di un mosaico che lentamente restituisce nella sua sorprendente interezza la figura di Amrit Kaur.Dopo l'incontro con la figlia ottantenne della principessa, “Bubbles”, la ricerca assume una nuova dimensione: mentre si sforza di riavvicinare una figlia alla madre che l'ha abbandonata, Livia si ritrova a sciogliere alcuni nodi della sua stessa vita.Il segreto di Amrit Kaur è un mystery avvincente, basato su fatti e personaggi reali, un commovente ritratto di donne, attraverso i secoli e i continenti, alla ricerca della libertà a qualsiasi costo. Un romanzo in cui perdersi, per ritrovarsi.Mi avrebbe dato la sua approvazione, se avessi scritto un libro su questa storia? Di fronte al suo immediato assenso l'avevo messa in guardia. Né lei né io potevamo sapere cosa avrei trovato. Se la sentiva di correre i rischi che questo comportava?Livia Manera Sambuy è una giornalista letteraria che scrive sul “Corriere della Sera”.

Niché dans un écrin de verdure, à Boulogne-Billancourt (Hauts-de-Seine), le Musée départemental Albert-Kahn, récemment restauré, passe presque inaperçu depuis la rue.

Robin Runyan from Urbanize Detroit is in the studio, and we're talking about a ton of projects around town. Turkey Stearnes Field at Hamtramck Stadium was dedicated, Robin went. Livonia residents say no to apartments because they fear they'd bring the poors (and others) $38 million in credits is coming to Detroit to build low income units; including converting old St. Michaels catholic school on the city's east side to housing We discuss the ongoing Hudson's saga and developers going back to the well for more incentive money; and why politicians across America almost never say no to stadiums or other projects. Robin's thoughts on the new East Warren streetscape The Gateway Center at Michigan and Washington Boulevard in Detroit will be demo'd - it's actually an Albert Kahn with an ugly duckling facade from the 70s. It was the Finsterwald building. The former Studebaker Service and Sales building is becoming 162 apartments in Milwaukee Junction And, the old Ford home in Boston Edison is for sale. A truly unique property.

L'émission 28 Minutes du 17/06/2022 Au programme de l'émission du 16 juin 2022 ⬇ Ce vendredi, l'essayiste Julie Graziani, le correspondant européen de “Libération” Jean Quatremer, la journaliste, autrice et réalisatrice Rokhaya Diallo et le dessinateur Erwann Terrier reviennent sur l'actualité de la semaine. Notre invité Adrien Genoudet les rejoindra en cours d'émission. À l'occasion de la réouverture du musée départemental Albert Kahn à Boulogne, cet historien, écrivain, cinéaste et chercheur en histoire visuelle, auteur d'une thèse sur Kahn, nous éclairera sur ce lieu singulier.   Retour sur deux actualités de la semaine : Politique migratoire. L'avion affrété par Londres avec à son bord des migrants rwandais sommés de retourner à Kigali n'a pas pu décoller, à la suite d'une décision prise par la Cour européenne des droits de l'Homme. Une réaction considérée comme une atteinte à la souveraineté britannique par les conservateurs outre-Manche. La politique migratoire doit-elle être du seul ressort des États ? Canicule. En début de semaine, le climatologue Christophe Cassou a adressé un tweet à destination des journalistes dans lequel il les appelle à ne “plus montrer des images de gens qui se baignent pendant la vague de chaleur”. Une façon, selon lui, d'éviter la dissonance cognitive. Faut-il dramatiser les canicules pour faire réagir l'opinion ? La guerre des chefs ! Dans son duel de la semaine, Renaud Dély oppose Jean-Luc Mélenchon à Emmanuel Macron. Contrairement aux apparences, tous deux ne sont pas en lice pour les législatives. C'est pourtant eux qui concentrent l'essentiel du débat de l'entre-deux tours.  Lumière avec Sonia Chironi sur l'inventivité des internautes, qui s'en sont donnés à cœur joie pour commenter les sujets du baccalauréat de philosophie, dont les épreuves écrites avaient lieu le 15 juin dernier pour les élèves des filières générales et technologiques. Dans son histoire de la semaine, Claude Askolovitch se penche sur l'incroyable propos d'un ingénieur de Google : une Intelligence Artificielle aurait manifesté des signes laissant entendre qu'elle avait conscience d'elle-même. Ledit employé a ensuite été limogé...  Retrouvez enfin les photos de la semaine sélectionnées avec soin par nos clubbistes et “Dérive des continents” de Benoît Forgeard. 28 Minutes est le magazine d'actualité d'ARTE, présenté par Elisabeth Quin du lundi au vendredi à 20h05. Renaud Dély est aux commandes de l'émission le samedi. Ce podcast est coproduit par KM et ARTE Radio  Enregistrement : 17 juin 2022 - Présentation : Élisabeth Quin - Production : KM, ARTE Radio

Did You Hear How the FBI, NSA, and CIA Got Tracked Because of Their Smartphones? How About You? You're worried about surveillance. Hey, I'm worried about surveillance. And it turns out that there's a secretive company out there that to prove their mustard tracked the CIA, and NSA yeah. Fun thing. [Following is an automated transcript.] [00:00:16] This is a company that is scary. We've talked before about a couple of these scary guys. [00:00:22] There's this Israeli company called NSO group. And this it is, so group is absolutely incredible. What they've been doing, who they'll sell to these. Guys are a company that sells cell phones, smart phone exploits to its customers. And there are alleged to have sold their software to a variety of human rights abusers. [00:00:53] We're talking about NSO group coming up with what we would term a zero day hack against I-phones against Android phones against pretty much anything out. So in other words, I hacked that no one ever seen before and then use that in order to get into the phone and find information, they views things like the, I think it was what's app and video that was sent and usually. [00:01:22] To hack Saudi Arabian phones. You might remember Chris Shogi this journalist. I guess he was who apparently was murdered by them. Big problem. So this Israeli group. Yeah. Yeah. They sell to anybody that's willing to pay. At least that's what the allegations are. I've never tried to buy their stuff, but yeah, they're assisting government with hacks with. [00:01:48] Ultimate in surveillance. Another one clear view. We've talked about them on the show before this is a company that has done all kinds of illegal stuff. Now some of it's technically not illegal. They're against the terms of usage, what Clearview has done. And now they've gotten involved in this Russian Ukrainian. [00:02:12] War that's been going on here and they've gotten involved with a number of legal cases in the us. What they did is they said, okay great. Let's do something. You remember Facebook, right guys. So you've heard of that before. And how Facebook got started. Mike Zuckerberg. MK went ahead and stole the pictures of the women that were in Harvard's cattle. [00:02:41] And I will, when I'm, when I say catalog, okay, this isn't like a catalog of women, order one mail order type thing. We're talking about their index, their contacts, there is a catalog of all of the students that are there in the school. So Zuckerberg goes and grabs those against policy. [00:03:00] Okay. Maybe it wasn't strictly against policy at the time. And then he puts up some. Called the Facebook where people can look at a picture of a girl and decide whether or not she should get a five or a 10 or a one. Yeah. That sort of stuff, abusing people that really is abuse. I can't imagine. [00:03:19] The way people felt, I had seen their ratings by people that didn't know them, that somehow their Def definition of beauty really defined who they are. It's crazy what the stuff he did. So he started his business by stealing stuff. Microsoft started his business by. By going ahead and misrepresenting, some would say lying to IBM about what he had as far as an operative system goes right, again and again, we're seeing dishonest people getting involved, doing dishonest things to get their companies off of the ground. [00:03:54] And I have a friend who's an attorney who says, and Craig, that's why you will never be wealthy because you just wouldn't do any of that. So Clearview is another example of these types of companies. In this case, clear view, went to Facebook and crawled any page. It could get its little grubby crawlers on. [00:04:18] So it found your public fake Facebook page. It went. Over the internet. There's a number of websites. Some are out of business now, but the, you upload your pictures to you. People can rate them, can share them. You can share them. Hey, you got your own photo gallery here that you can share with friends and a million other people. [00:04:39] I'm right. That's what ended up happening. That's how those guys made the money. They're selling you on, Hey, you can look at how convenient this. And you can have your own little photo gathered at gallery and you can take that full load photo gallery and share it with your friends. And then if you read the fine print at T and we'll make money off of showing your pictures and showing ads well, Ah, Clearview went and scanned every website. [00:05:08] It could get its grubby little scanners on crawled through the mall, downloaded pictures of any face that it could find. And then went ahead and digitized information about people's faces. So it spent years scraping and then it put together its technology, facial recognition technology, and went to the next level, which is, Hey, please department, get my app so you can get the clear view. [00:05:41] And do you encounter someone? You can take a picture of them and upload it, which now gives them another face. Doesn't it. And then once it's uploaded, it'll compare it. It'll say, okay. Found the guy here. So with the Russia Ukrainian war, what they were doing is taking pictures of dead and injured, Russian soldiers, running them through this database online of all of these spaces, found out who they were and went so far as to use. [00:06:14] Stolen data online. Now this is war, right? The whole thing is crazy, but the stolen database online find out who their mothers were, the phone numbers for the mothers, and to have people all over the world, sending text messages to mom about their dads. Yeah. Okay. So Clearview sells it to police departments. [00:06:38] They sell it to pretty much the highest bidder they say, Hey, listen, we don't do that. Come on right now. There's other data brokers. And I've had a few on my show in the past who are using harvested information from phone apps to provide location data. To law enforcement so that they can then circumvent. [00:07:03] What you have a right to privacy. Don't you it's codified right in the bill of rights. I was first 10 amendments to the U S constitution and it was all defined by the Supreme court's carpenter decision. So we have protections in the constitution, natural, right? That were confirmed by the Supreme court that say, Hey, the federal government, you cannot track all of the citizens. [00:07:31] You can't track what they're doing. You can't harvest their information. And yet at the same time, They go to the data brokers that have put together all of these face pictures, figured out who your friends are, you sign up for Facebook and it says, Hey, you want me to find your friends? [00:07:49] See if they're already on Facebook. Just hit. Yes. Here, not blowed your contact list. So I'll go. Facebook says, oh, look at all your friends. Or we found isn't this exciting. And in the meantime, in the background, Facebook is looking at all of this data and saying, we now know who your friends are. And so many people have wondered I wait a minute. [00:08:10] I didn't talk about. I didn't do a search for product X online, and yet I'm getting ads for product X. Well, did you mention it to a friend who might've done a search for it? Because these search engines, these companies like Facebook know who your friends are, what they're interested in, and they'll sell ads to people who are going to promote to you the same items they're promoting to your friends. [00:08:35] It's absolutely crazy. So this company. It's called and they're very quiet, very low key. The website doesn't say anything at all, but they took their software. That's pulling all of this data together and compiling it. Yeah. And ASX pointed all of this technology towards the national security agency and the C I a and Jews, their own cell phones against them. [00:09:08] Now, why did they do this? They didn't do it to prove something about how, you shouldn't allow this sort of thing to happen and they didn't do it to prove that man, we've got to have tighter controls because look at what we can do. If we can do it, other people can do it. No. According to audio, visual presentations and recordings of an ACX presentation reviewed by the intercept and tech inquiry. [00:09:36] claimed that it can track roughly 3 billion devices in real time. That's equivalent to a fifth of the world population. You're not going to find anything out about Asics it's called anomaly six. Good luck online. If you find it, let me know me@craigpeterson.com. I'd love to know more about these guys. The only thing on a website for them as an email address and a six anomalies six in that presentation showed the nation spooks. [00:10:13] Exactly what knew about. All right. Apparently is also ignoring questions from journalists and will only respond to emails from people in upper levels of federal agencies, which means, and maybe this is a supposition from our friends over at tech dirt. I don't know. But then what that means is they're looking to sell your information in real time. [00:10:43] To the feds to get around the carpenter decision and the constitution just absolutely amazing. Hey, go online right now. Craig peterson.com. I'll send you my special report on passwords and my two other most popular Craig peterson.com. Stick around. [00:11:06] Have you ever wondered about search engines? Which one should you be using? You're not alone. It's probably the number one question I get from people. What should I use? Google is falling behind, but we're going to talk about the top engines and the why. [00:11:23] Google has been an amazing company moving up. Of course, we're just talking about the cheats. [00:11:31] So many companies have taken over the years and Google has certainly had its share of cheat. I haven't seen anything about them just doing completely underhanded things to get started. I think. They were pretty straightforward. They had a great idea back in the beginning, where they were just looking at links, how many sites linked into this one particular site? [00:11:57] And that gave this concept of a page rank. Very simple, very easy to do. Of course, are problems with. Because you would end up with pages that are older, having more links to them, et cetera. And they have over the years really improved themselves, but we also have some other problems right now with Google. [00:12:22] If you do searches on Google for a number of different. And you'll see that really Google search quality has deteriorated in recent years. We've talked before here about some of the problems with Google and elections and how they have obviously gone out of their way to influence the election. [00:12:43] There is study down in, done in orange county, California, or at least about orange county, California, and an election down there showed that Google had a major influence on that election and also tilted it a certain way on purpose. Absolutely amazing. So that's one way Google has fallen behind, but you can. [00:13:06] At all kinds of searches and hope you're going to get a great response. And you don't have you noticed that it's gotten worse and then on top of it, you're starting to see more ads squeezed in it is not great. I have used. Of course for programming in years past, before that I liked alter Vista, which was a digital equipment corporation product out there. [00:13:32] Vista was pretty darn good. And you could use Boolean logic with it. Google says you can use Boolean with us, but it's not the same as Google's is very simple. But at any rate they have not made any. Leaps here going forward. It's been absolutely amazing. So let's go through the search engines. [00:13:53] I'm going to give you right now, the pros and cons to some of these search engines out there. So we started with. It is 800 pound gorilla. And in case you didn't know the number two overall search engine is YouTube. Okay. But let's stick with straight searches, not video searches. So what is great about Google? [00:14:19] One of the big things is they like fresh content. So if you're looking to do search engine optimization for your business, you are best off having some Keystone pages. So having these pages that are. Kept up to date. So you might have a page on whatever it might be hacking VPNs, right? And you make sure you update it because Google does favor the fresh content. [00:14:45] They rank blogs and. Services, which is really nice and they're accessible in any device. They have apps that work well on a browser. And I'm right now, I'm looking@anarticlebylifewire.com on the best search engine. So you'll see some of this information there. They don't like about it is the same thing you don't. [00:15:09] Right? Which is, it collects all kinds of data on you. They also have hidden content that, that might damage your ranking as a business or someone who has a website and the search delivers. Too many results, millions of results. Yeah, there probably are millions of results for a single search, but what I want are the really relevant ones and Google learns over time. [00:15:38] What kind of results that you want, which is kudos to them, but they are tone deaf sometimes, frankly as well. Okay. Our number two on our list of topics. Is duck go. Now I've been talking about them for quite a while and some people have been disparaging talk, talk, go lately. And the reason is they say, what. [00:16:03] And those search results maybe are a little wrong, right? They are maybe student little sensory, not as much as Google does, but some, at first duck go.com is where you'll find them online named after that kids game. Is a privacy search engine. So it is not tracking or storing any information about you. [00:16:29] That's a very big one. There are searches are very fast, but they're backed. The actual backend search engine is. Which is Microsoft. We're going to get to that in a couple of minutes here. That means that if Microsoft is deciding to do some weighting on search results, based on their political views, then that's going to show up in duck go, but it's nowhere near as bad. [00:16:54] And I've talked about it on the show before we'd done some examples. So it is also now giving you the option to restrict your searches to the last month worth of results, which is really nice. That keeps a little more up to date. They also aren't great at image searches, no personalized results, and it is free, which is nice. [00:17:17] You might also want to look at quant Q w a N T. If you look at. A private or privacy browser. Quanta's a French company, but it does leave English as well. Okay. English results. They like the older and well-established web pages, they rank home pages. They do not rank blogs. They crawl all kinds of hidden content and non hidden, equally, unlike Google, which is really great being as not great at forums. [00:17:50] As I mentioned, blogs, they're not as fast as Google. And they have some seriously heavy search results screened. Dogpile they've been around for quite a while. You might want to check them out. They have something called fetches and favorite fetches. So you can have a home screen when you go to dog pile and you'll see right there. [00:18:14] Your favorite searches and they're right there for you. You can just keep going to them. They use multiple databases so they can get broad results, multiple backend search engines, and there's no home screen personalization available. And lots of sponsored results, which isn't a real big deal, but you'll find them online@dogpile.com, Google scholar search. [00:18:38] I've used this a number of times. If you're looking for scholarly articles, it is really good. You can get citations in various styles. If you are working on your master's PhD, whatever. B and they're imposing a style in the document that you're writing. So you can put it into the bibliography and a, they got a lot of great stuff. [00:19:02] Google scholar you'll find online at scholar dot, google.com. Wearable PDs, sir. It focuses on technical terms and applications, which is good, friendly to non-tech users. And it is only searching the web well, PD is 10,000 word and phrase database. So that's pretty. To to understand to Yahoo search, they have a home screen, has news trending topics. [00:19:33] I've used y'all who? Of course it's not what it used to be, but it does have everything right there. Even your horoscope. And the ads are not marked out clearly. And then there's the internet archive search. This is actually a site that I fund. I donate money to them every month and you'll find them@archive.org, but it is really cool. [00:19:58] You can search based on timeframes again, if you are doing papers, if you're a journalist. You can find what was the internet like? Or was this webpage? What was it like around a hurricane Katrina in 2005, right there. We will find it online@archive.org. Hey, stick around. We'll be right back. [00:20:23] You already know that hackers are coming after you we've talked about how they are out there, scraping web pages, putting together stuff. I want to bring up again, the Ukraine, Russian war and Russia leaking data like a sieve . [00:20:39] It is, of course in the news again, it seems like it has been in the news for how long now, six years, maybe longer in this case, we're going to talk about what the hackers are doing because they're not just doing it to Russia. [00:20:56] They're doing. Us. And it's a problem. We're going to explain why you've heard of doxing before D O X I N G two docs, someone which is basically to find documentation about people and to release it. That's really a part of it. So you've seen some political operatives who have gone online and doxed people. [00:21:22] For instance one of them is libs of tick talk. You might've heard of that one, and this is where they take all of these crazy things that crazy people on tick talk, go ahead and publish and just put excerpts of them together. They don't cut it up to make them look crazy. No. They let them be crazy. [00:21:42] All by themselves and put it online. So some libs decided, Hey, we don't like this. And journalists who had been complaining about doxing before that shouldn't be done and it's unethical. It should be illegal. Yeah. What does she do? She goes and docks. The lady that was running libs of tick talk. [00:22:07] And I, it just blows my mind here. How can these people be so two faced, they really are just crazy to face. So she went ahead and did what she said should never be done. And I'm sure she had some form of justification for it and put it out online. So I went online, comes this lady's home. Address her name. [00:22:31] Kinds of stuff and that's available online right now. Now you might want to try and do something that I've done before, which is, if you go to one of these data brokers, ads for these things, right? Do a search for yourself with us. And have a look at how accurate that information is. When I looked last time I looked cause I had a few data brokers on the radio show. [00:22:58] I would say less than a third of the information that they claimed was information about me was actually accurate less than a third, frankly. And I don't think that's a particularly, what's the word I'm looking for, but Unique situation. Let me put it that way. I don't think it's unique at all. I think they get a lot of it wrong because remember, they're trying to piece together this piece together that and put it all together. [00:23:27] So you can't a hundred percent rely on any of that stuff. And as I said, for me, it wasn't particularly accurate. Now let's move into. Ukraine has claimed to have doxed Russian troops as well as FSB spies. Do you remember them from the Soviet union? They still exist, and hacktivists actually have official scheduled meetings and are leaking private information from various Russian organizations in Russia. [00:23:59] So we're talking about things like their names, birth dates, passport numbers, job titles, and the personal information that they have released about these Russian companies. And people goes on for pages here. It looks like frankly, any data breach, you'll find a great article about this that I'm referring to in wired.com, but this particular data. [00:24:25] Can change personal information on 1600 Russian troops who served in bootcamp, a Ukrainian city, that's been attacked by Russia. And by the way, you've probably seen these things. There were all kinds of accusations here of multiple potential war crimes. What was going on over there? So this data sets not the only one. [00:24:50] There's another one that legislature legislation. Allegedly contains the names and contact details of 620 Russian spies who are registered to work at the Moscow office of the F S B. That is Russia's main security agents. Now this information wasn't released by hackers in North Korea or hackers in the us or Russia, because we already know Russian hackers. [00:25:22] Don't attack Russia. They're not stupid. Okay. They don't want boudin coming after them, but this was published by Ukraine's intelligence service. So all of these names, all of these personal details, birth dates, passport numbers, job titles, where they're from all kinds of stuff. I'm freely available online to anyone who cares to look now, Ukrainian officials wrote in a Facebook post as they publish the data that every year peon should know their names. [00:25:56] So you got to bet, there are a lot of people freaking out over there. Absolutely freaking out in Russia that is. Since the Russians invaded Ukraine, there have been huge amounts of information about Russia itself, the Russian government activities and companies in Russia. These, all the guards that are over there and it's all been made public. [00:26:21] So it's very interesting because these are been closed off private institutions in the us. Yeah, we do some hacking of potential adversaries, but they don't release. All right. Not at all, but there's really two types of data here. First of all, you've got the information that the Russian authorities are publishing. [00:26:42] Their allies are publishing, and then you've got the hacktivists, these companies, these groups, I should say. Anonymous hundreds of gigabytes of files and millions of emails have been made public, including some of the largest companies within Russia. The big guys, oil and gas companies or lumber companies, et cetera, et cetera. [00:27:08] So there's a former British Colonel in the military intelligence. Wired is quoting here, his name's Phillip Ingram. And he said, both sides in this conflict are very good at information operations. The Russians are quite blatant about the lies that they'll tell we're used to that aren't we, and much of the Russian disinformation has been debunked, but they say. [00:27:36] They have to make sure that what they're putting out is credible and they're not caught telling out right. Lies in a way that would embarrass them or embarrass their international partners. So it's really quite interesting. We've started seeing the stuff coming out in March 20, 22. Of course. And it's hard to tell how accurate the data is. [00:28:00] Looks probably pretty accurate. It has been scooped up as I mentioned on the show before, but. Some activists, one of whom has put together an app that anyone can download. And that allows you to send texts to the mothers of Russian soldiers, some alive, some dead, and it automatically translated into Russian. [00:28:24] I assume it's a crude translation, but whatever. So you can. Harass some bore a babushka over there in Russia, whose grandson is out there fighting. This is just incredible. We've never seen anything like any of this before, but doxing very toxic online behavior. And when it comes to war, the gloves are off. [00:28:48] And by the way, these groups that I mentioned, these hacktivists have official meetings, Tuesday mornings on telegram, and they talk about who the next target is. Absolutely amazing. Make sure you visit me online. Craig Peter sawn.com and don't go anywhere because we've got more coming up here about organizations in general, here in the us breaches are up stolen data or. [00:29:17] And the number of bankruptcies are up because of it. [00:29:23] Hacks or up no, you know that we've known that for awhile, but did you know that is not necessarily the number one reason businesses are suffering breaches. So we're going to talk about that right now. What else you have. [00:29:39] We've talked before about some of the websites that I keep an eye on. [00:29:44] One of them is called dark reading and they've got a lot of good stuff. Some of the stuff I don't really agree with, who agrees with everybody or another person, just one, even a hundred percent of the time. Like no one. Okay. So in this case, we're talking to. Organization suffering a breach. [00:30:03] And the stat that they're quoting here is that more than 66, 0% of organizations have suffered a breach in the last 12 months. That's huge. And the breaches have gotten more expensive. Global average breach cost is $2.4 million. And if you are unprepared to respond to a compromise, that price tag increases to $3 million. [00:30:36] Yeah. That's how bad it is. That's what's going on out there right now. But the point that really they're trying to make here, a dark reading in this article by Robert Lim. Is that organizations are focused too narrowly on external attackers when it's insiders third parties and stolen assets that cause many breaches. [00:31:02] That's what this new study is showing from Forrester research. Now I had them on the show a few times in the past, you might be familiar with them. They are a research company. The charges a lot for very little information, they've got the research to back it up right there. They're really one of the leading, if not the leading research company out there. [00:31:26] So last month they came in. With the 20, 21 state of enterprise breaches report. And they found that the number of breaches in the cost of breaches varied widely, depending on where the organization is based. And. The big one that you have control over is whether they were prepared to respond to breaches. [00:31:53] Now, companies in north America had the largest disparity between the haves and have not listened to these numbers. They're bad for businesses, these numbers, and they're worse for individuals. The average organization required 38 days. 38 days over a month on average to find eradicate and recover from a breach, but companies that were not prepared for security challenges took 62 days. [00:32:28] Now the good news here is that this is down. It used to take nine months on average, and now we're down to two months, but here's the big question. Can you, or can a company survive 62 days or is it going to be out of business? Do you have enough money to make payroll for the next two months? That's where the problem. [00:32:55] Really starts to come in. That's why small businesses that are hacked small businesses that are using things like Norton or some of the other real basic software without having a good firewall and good security practices. And same thing with individuals here. You are going to be out of business. [00:33:17] That's of the showing right now. And your insurance policy that you have for cybersecurity insurance will not pay out. I did a presentation for an insurance industry group. This was in Massachusetts and it was a statewide group. And we'd talked about how the. Are not paying out the companies. [00:33:41] Aren't right. And why, and if you are not prepared, if you are not doing the right things and I can send you a list of what you need to be doing, if you'd like, just email me@craigpeterson.com. Be glad to send it to me. M E at Craig Peterson, P E T E R. So when Dr. And just to ask for it and I'll respond to you or we'll get married or someone else to forward it to you because I've already got it. [00:34:07] Okay. This isn't a big deal for me. Okay. It's ready to go. But that list is an important list because if you don't meet the standard. That the insurance industry has set forward and you are a hack. They're not going to pay you a dime, even if you Sue them. And we've seen this with very large companies as well, where they're trying to recover tens of millions of dollars from the insurance policy, and they didn't get a dime. [00:34:36] They had to also pay who knows how many millions to lawyers to Sue the insurance companies. And they lost. Okay. It's a very big deal. So there's a huge misalignment, according to Forrester, between the expectation and the reality of breaches on a global scale, there's a big disparity of above $600,000 between those. [00:34:59] Paired to respond to a breach and those who are not. And we can talk about that as well, because there's things you need to do obviously backup, but backup means you've got to check the backup. You've got to make sure it's valid. You should be spinning up the backups on, in a virtual environment in order to make sure the backups are good. [00:35:22] There's a lot of things you should be doing. Okay. And that's just a part of it. Plus, do you have your PR people ready? Are you able to respond to the state requirements? A lot of states. Now, if you are hacked require you to report it to the state, in some cases in as little as 72 hours. So do you have that paperwork ready? [00:35:46] Do you have the phone numbers of all of the people that are on the team? Okay. All of these things now, the threats are not just the external hack. Anybody who's trying to protect their data is focused on obviously the external hackers. That's where we tend to focus part one part two is we focus in on the people that are working inside. [00:36:13] The company, right? It's a zero trust narrative here. Why is this guy in sales, trying to get into the engineering files? Why are they trying to get into payroll? You understand where I'm going with this, you buy and what I'm selling. You don't want them to have access to stuff that they don't need access. [00:36:37] Attacks that Forrester found were spread over external attacks, internal incidents, third party, and supply chain attacks, which is really big nowadays and lost or stolen. Assets globally. Half of companies consider external attacks to be this top threat, but in reality, only a third of the incidents come from external actors. [00:37:04] Nearly a quarter of them are traced back to an internal event. 23% consisted of lost or stolen assets and 21% involved with third. Partner. Interesting. Hey, so we've got to keep an eye on this. These external attacks are a very big deal and that's where they have success with what are called zero day attacks. [00:37:31] But your internal people can be a problem. Now I have. Put together in 2022, this is something really important. What we call a POA and M it's a plan of action and milestones of what you need to be doing. For your cybersecurity. Okay. This is available absolutely free. You have to email me M e@craigpeterson.com. [00:38:00] But the idea behind this is it's a spreadsheet that you can use in numbers on a Mac or Excel on windows. And it has all of the key items. Now we follow what's called the. 801 71 standard. This is the national Institute of standards and technology, and they've laid out all of the different things. That you should be doing now. [00:38:26] We've broken them down into eight cybersecurity activators as what we called them. And we have, you should have already gotten an email this week from me. If you're on my email list, just talking about, cause we're starting now getting into those cybersecurity activators. I'm showing you. To do about each one of them. [00:38:46] So you can do it yourself. So many of us are stuck with being the CTO or the guy or gal in charge of it just because we like computers or we know more than somebody else. So if you're on my email list, you will be getting these things off. We're going to be going through them in the weeks. I had little quick mini micro trainings, if you will, but you gotta be on the email list in order to get them. [00:39:12] These are also appropriate for home users right now. You're going to have to make your decisions as to what you're going to do, but home users have the same exposure, the same basic problems that they have in bigger organizations out. So I follow the national Institute of standards and technologies. [00:39:34] They have broken it down into a number of different sections. They actually require it. And if you are compliant with this new standard you are going to be able to recover your money from the insurance company. If you are hacked, I don't know. I was going to say it for a win, but hopefully you won't get hacked because of this. [00:39:58] So it's an important thing to follow. So make sure you go to Craig peterson.com/subscribe right now and get subscribed. A lot of stuff for home users. My business is focused on securing businesses. Particularly regulated businesses, right? If you have intellectual property, you don't want to have stolen a few do government contracts where they're requiring you to be compliant with this new standard or some of the others, but it's. [00:40:27] Basic stuff that every business should be following. So just email me, M e@craigpeterson.com with your questions. We've been really good at answering them. We've probably lately been averaging about a dozen a day. Which is quite a few, but so it might take us a little bit to get back to, but we've gotten much better. [00:40:48] Mary her number one responsibility right now is making sure that we answer all of your emails. We'll send out this plan of action and milestone spreadsheet for you. So you know what to do. This is updated. This is 2022. Everything you need right there. Me at Craig Peterson dot. Alright, you'll also find my podcast there. [00:41:14] Craig peterson.com. And I want to point out that I'm not doing the show on video anymore. Just wasn't getting enough traction with, if it just takes too long. Anyways, Craig peterson.com. [00:41:29] This is one of the top topics I've had people ask about lately, and that is protecting yourself and your business against Russian hacker. So I've got a presentation. We're going to run through it. We're going to talk about what you can do. [00:41:46] This has been a long time coming. I have been doing a lot over the years of webinars of online meetings, trying to help people understand what's going on, what can be done. [00:41:58] And I got a great email this week from one of the listeners. Who's been man on my email list now for years, I'm not even sure how many years. And he was saying, Hey, thanks for giving all of this information for free for small businesses. I can't afford it. And I got to thinking, because there've been a lot of requests lately, for instance, backups how should I be doing them? [00:42:22] What should I be doing? And a number of other topics that really all go together into the, how do I protect myself? My business. From ransomware from these Russian hackers. So that's what we're going to be talking about today. We're going to go through a few of these. This is going to be a series. [00:42:41] We're going to continue this here and weeks ahead, and I appreciate all your feedback. And if you miss part of it, make sure you email me just M. Craig peterson.com. Let me know, and I'll be glad to send some of it to you. Now I'm recording this on video as well. So it's great when you're driving around and listening in picking up some tidbits. [00:43:04] And if you do want to see the recorded version again, dropping them in an email to me@craigpeterson.com or search for me on YouTube or on one of the other sites that are out there like grumble and you'll. This as I release it. Cause this is going to take a few weeks to really get into the whole thing. [00:43:26] So let's get started. I'm going to pull this up here. Full screen. For those watching at home and what this is called today, we're talking about protecting your business and your self from Russian hackers because they have been out there. They have been causing just all kinds of problems, but there's a few things that you can do. [00:43:48] And I have them up on the screen here. Let me pull them up, but I want to get into the background first. Russian ransomware group. They're a bunch of bad guys and it's called Conti. Now. Conti has been around for a long time. These are the guys that have been ransoming us. They're the guys who in rants. The businesses they've been rants. [00:44:10] Government, you might've heard them. They've got into hospitals. They have been all over the place and they've raised a whole lot of. For the Russians. I'm also going to tell you about a couple of things you can do here. Cause there's a real neat trick when it comes to keeping Russians out of your computers, but Conti decided, Hey, listen, we are all for Russia and president and Putin. [00:44:34] So they came out with an official warning, oh, I want to read this to it says if anybody. We'll decide to organize a cyber attack or any war activities against Russia. We are going to use our all possible resources to strike back at the critical infrastructures of an enemy. Yeah, no, not the best English, but much better than my Russian. [00:44:55] I got to say that I know two words or so in Russian, but they said that they were announcing full support for president. That's a pretty bad thing. If you asked me, they also have ties to Russian intelligence intelligence, but what are we talking about really? Think of the KGB. [00:45:13] The FSB is what they're called nowadays, but directly tie. China and North Korea, Iran, or also now tied in with Russia to varying degrees, but all of them are a little bit concerned about getting into it a little too much, but we're going to talk about their tactics. That's what's important today. What are they doing? [00:45:35] Why are they doing it? What can you do about. So the first thing is password sprain. This is big deal. I've got a nice big slide up here. I like that color blue. I don't know about you, but I think it's pretty, but password sprain is something we all need to understand a little bit better. It's a brute force attack that has been really hurting. [00:46:00] Many of us. Let me see if I can get this to work. For some reason it has decided it just doesn't want. Let me see here. What is up? Oh, is something isn't it's just, I'm getting a white screen, but it's a brute force attack targets users who have common passwords. Now this is a problem. When we're talking about passwords. [00:46:25] If you have a password that has been breached in any of these breaches that have gone on over the last, however long, right? 30 years plus now that password is known to the bad guy. So what they'll do is they'll take that common password and they'll start to try it. So password sprain is where they will go to a bank site or they'll go to Google. [00:46:51] The, oftentimes they're trying to get at your email accounts. So if you have Google email or Yahoo or Hotmail, they'll try it. Use passwords that they have found against accounts that they have found on those various sites that ends up being quite a big problem for everybody out there. Okay. I got that screen back here. [00:47:12] So I'll put that up for those people who are well. But they will send multiple times attacks using variations of these passwords. And it's known as a low and slow method of password hacking because if they were to go bam, and send all of these passwords and login attempts. [00:47:35] They'd get caught. The automated systems would say, Hey, wait a minute. This is not good. We're going to cut you off. In fact, that's what I do for my client. We have remote access using SSH, which is a an encryption session so that we can have a terminal session. And if you try and log in three times, We automatically zap you, right? [00:47:58] We shut you down. So they take a very slow approach to this password sprain technique. And they're also going after volume, which makes a whole lot of sense. And there are right now, billions of passwords usernames, email addresses that have been stolen that are sitting out in the dark. So you've got to make sure that you are not reusing passwords. [00:48:24] How many times have we talked about that? You've got one common password that you're using over and again, while that's a problem, but they're not going to keep hacking your account. They're going to switch from one account to another because they don't want to get locked out. [00:48:39] Just like I lock out somebody who's trying to get in. So if someone's coming from that same. IP address that same internet site. And they're trying to log into that same account multiple times. Bam. They are gone. So with path's word sprain, they're trying to get around the problem of you noticing they're trying to get into a bunch of different accounts and they try and leverage it. [00:49:04] So they'll oftentimes use multiple computers that they've stolen access to. We've talked about that before too. It gets to be a real big. Now they're also targeting these single sign-on and cloud-based applications, because once they're on. Using one of these federated authenticated authentication protocols, they can mask the malicious traffic. [00:49:30] We've heard some of these hacks lately where they're using a token that they managed to pick up from somebody's email, I account, or they got onto Microsoft and they got into the email account on Microsoft. That happened recently. In a supply chain attack, solar winds. You heard about that 20, 21, right? [00:49:52] So they're going after these email applications, including Microsoft or Microsoft has done they're going after routers and internet of things, devices for a very good reason, those IOT devices, which are things like your smart lights, they can be. Controlling the cameras outside, they go on and on there's thousands, millions of them. [00:50:14] Now I actually all the way through your microwave, they tend to not be very well protected. So that's a real big target for them. So step. They want to acquire a list of usernames. Step two, they're going to spray the passwords. Where do they get those passwords in those usernames? Or they get them from breaches. [00:50:36] So again, if you have an account that's breached at some online shopping site, a big one, a small one, it doesn't really mean. That particular breach is now well known and they can, will and do gain access to your account which is step three, gain access to it. It gets to be a serious problem. [00:50:57] Okay. How do you know if you are under attack? Number one? There is a spike in failed. Log-ins this is where having a system and there's technical terms is tough for this. I'm trying to avoid a lot of those terms, but this is where the system is watching logins, noticing that there's a problem and going ahead and stopping it, not just noticing it, but stop. Very important to do. There are a high number of locked accounts, which means what it means that again, someone's been trying to log in. You should make sure that your account, if there are invalid, lock-ins automatic. Locks it out after some number of attempts and five attempts is usually considered to be okay. [00:51:44] I know on my phone, for instance, I have a higher number of the neck, cause sometimes the grandkids get at it. But when it comes to your business account, when it comes to your bank account, you probably don't want to have a whole bunch of attempts, and then in known or valid or invalid, I should say use. [00:52:04] Attempt again, why are they trying to log in with a username that just doesn't exist? Yeah, it can be a problem. Hey, when we come back. We're going to talk about some steps. Like you can take here to really remediate, maybe even stop a password spraying attack. I've already given you a few ideas here, but what are some act of things that you can do, particularly for a small business to really protect yourself? [00:52:33] Hey, stick around. We'll be right back. Craig peterson.com. [00:52:39] Russia has, been hacking our computers, Russia's continuing to hack our computers and this is a real problem. So we are going to talk right now about how to stop some of these things. We already talked about password sprain. How do you stop it? [00:52:56] There are a lot of things we have to pay attention to, and that's what I'm going to be doing in the weeks ahead. [00:53:03] We're going to be going through some of the things you need to do to keep yourself safe. Keep your business safe in this really dangerous online. There are so many things going on. So many people that are losing their retirement businesses, losing their operating accounts. We've seen it before with clients of ours while you know their clients now. [00:53:29] And it was just a devastating thing to them. So I don't want that to happen to you now, if you are interested. All of this is recorded and I am doing this as video as well. We've got slides and you can find out more about it. Just email me M e@craigpeterson.com. It's really that simple. And I didn't let me know. [00:53:54] And I'll be glad to send it off to you. Okay. This is available to anybody I'm trying to help. And we've had a lot of emails recently about some of these things. So th this is covering everything from the password spraying we're talking about right now through backups and other things that you need to do. [00:54:14] Let's get going on our sprain problem. So w what are the steps that we need to take in order to really remediate against one of these password spraying attacks? And frankly, it is. Oh, a lot to do. It has a lot to do with our users and what we do, if you're a business, if you are an individual, we need to be using longer passwords. [00:54:43] Now we're not talking about all of these random characters that we used to have. I remember having to have my password be at least four characters, long APAC, when didn't even have to have a username, it was just all based on the password. And things changed over the years, the latest standards that are out there right now come from this too, which is the national Institute for science and technology. [00:55:07] They are the guys that put together, all of the guidelines said federal government and businesses need to follow. And they're telling us that a longer passwords means elaborate pass phrase. So you should use 15 character passwords. I had an article just a couple of weeks ago saying that an eight character password can be cracked almost instantly, certainly within an hour, any eight character password. [00:55:39] So if you're still using that, you've got to make a change. And obviously nine characters is a lot more possibilities, takes a lot longer to crack. I don't have those numbers right in front of me, but 15 is the ideal. So use pass phrases instead of single words. So phrases like I don't know secretary of one, the Kentucky. [00:56:04] There you go. There's a phrase. So what you would do is put, maybe dashes between each one of the words. Maybe you would go ahead and use a comma, put some numbers in there, put some special characters in upper lowercase, right? So it's basically on uncrackable at that point. And that's what you want. [00:56:24] Next one. When we're talking about rules for your passwords, the best passwords are the passwords that you can remember without writing them down and words that don't make sense to anyone else's. I remember taking a memory course a few years back and they had random words and you had to remember them. [00:56:49] And the whole idea was okay, visualize this happening. And as I recall, man, it's been a lot of years I won't say decades, but it hasn't been. Since I did this, I still remember a part of it, it was first word was airplane. Next was all envelope. The next one was paper clip. Next one was pencil. [00:57:08] So I visualized an airplane flying into an all envelope and that all envelope then goes into a paper clip and a pencil writes on the outside. Like it's addressing it to someone. That is a good little password, actually airplane or envelope, paperclip, a pencil with a mixed case and maybe a number two or special symbol thrown in. [00:57:35] Those are the types of rules that we're talking about. The types of rules that really. Next up here. Oops. Wrong keyboard. Stay away from frequently used passwords. We've talked about this many times. If you're using one of the better password managers, like for instance, one password, you will automatically have any passwords that you are there in Shirin or that it creates you'll have them checked via a website out there. [00:58:07] It's called. Yeah. Okay. It's called. Have I been poned I, and I hated to say this because how do you spell it? It's all one big, long word. Have I been poned to.com and poned is P w N E d.com. It will tell you if a password that you're trying to use is a known password. If it has been found out in the wild, okay. [00:58:32] Use unique passwords for every site you visit, I can't stress this enough. We were talking about password sprain. If you use the same password and email address on multiple sites, you're in. Because all they have to do is try your email address and your password for whichever site it is that they might want to try out. [00:58:58] Remember, many of them are trying to get into your email and they have done that successfully. With Microsoft email, if you have their Microsoft 365 service and you might want to read the fine print there very carefully, because Microsoft does not guarantee much of anything. You make sure you back it up yourself. [00:59:20] Make sure you do all of these things because Microsoft just plain, isn't doing them for you. Next one here. Next up is our password manager. And I mentioned this before installing and using a password manager is phenomenal. It automates the generation of passwords. If you have. Integrated with your web browser. [00:59:45] It now allows your web browser to work with your password manager. So when you go to a site, you can have it pull up your passwords. How could it be much easier than that? It's really rather simple. That way it's keeping track of your logins. And again, One password.com is the one I recommend and people get confused. [01:00:06] When I say that, when I'm saying one password, I don't mean only have one password used for everything. One password is a name of a company. Okay. So it Talking about only having a single password, but use a password manager. And I've got all of these up on the screen right now. If you're interested in getting copies of these, you can go ahead and just email me M e@craigpeterson.com. [01:00:35] And I'll make sure I send you a copy of the slide deck of this presentation as well. Cause this is just so important, frankly, but having these points is going to be huge for you. Now strange activity. That's another very big deal. And we're going to talk about this when we get back, what is it? [01:00:55] What does it mean? But I'm going to hold off the rest of this, I think for another week. But right now, what let's hit this, we're talking about odd log-in attacks. A lot of login attempts, the excessive login attempts trends in unusual activities take any, you need to basically take measures to block it and determine if this activity is legitimate. [01:01:20] Is someone just for forgetting their password and spraying themselves or what's going on? Okay. There you go. Simple. Hey, everybody, you can find out a lot more and you'll be getting links to this automatically to these videos, et cetera. If you're on my email list, Craig peterson.com and you can email me M e@craigpeterson.com. [01:01:45] We'd be glad to send you this or any other information I might have. All right. Take care. We'll be right back. [01:01:54] Putin has been working for a while. In fact, it looks like as early as September in 2021, Putin started going after major us corporation. So we're going to talk about that. And what does it mean? [01:02:10] Putin has been going crazy for a while. I'm going to put this up on the screen for those of you who are watching either on rumble or YouTube, but Putin planned this whole invasion apparently quite a while ago. [01:02:27] And I got an article from the Washington post up on MSN talking about what Putin did at least a little bit about what he did. And you can see right here if you're following. That Russian agents came to the home of Google's top executive and Moscow. And what they did is gave an ultimatum. They told that Google, a senior executive that they needed. [01:02:55] Pull down an app that was in use in Russia. And this app was polling. It was for people to do polls and say, Hey what do you think about Putin's garden performance, et cetera. We do them in the U S all of the time you hear about the polls right left and center. Poland, which is a small country next to another small country called Ukraine next to a large country called Russia. [01:03:21] But we're talking about Paul's favoribility polls. What do you think they should be doing? What do you think that the government should be doing and maybe what they should not be. So Putin didn't like this. He didn't like this at all. And so what he did is he sent a couple of guys ex KGB, FSB, the secret police over in Russia by to visit this Google executive. [01:03:47] If you're the Google executive, what are you going to do? If you Google. Yeah, you're going to say, oh my gosh, I'm out of here. So I'm not sure if she, if this executive was an American or Russian, this article doesn't seem to be clear about it, but what happened is they said, okay let's go hide. [01:04:12] So they rented a hotel room for the. They put her in it and they rented the room under an assumed name. So it wasn't the real name of the executive. It wasn't tied into Google and they thought, okay, now we're pretty safe. Cause you got a hotel security, I guess there are a couple of Google people hanging out with her and they felt pretty safe. [01:04:35] What happens next? There is a knock on the door. These same agents, again, that are believed to be Russian secret. Police showed up at her room and told her that the cock was still ticking because they had given her 24 hours for Google to take down the app because Putin, dental. People weren't particularly pleased with Putin. [01:05:02] So at that point, of course it was forget about it. And within hours, Google had pulled down the app. Now you might complain, right? A lot of people might complain about it. It's one thing for a company like Google or apple to capitulate, to a government to do maybe some censorship, like the great firewall of China. [01:05:25] You might've heard of that where the Chinese citizens can't get certain information. Russia has something pretty similar and us companies have gone ahead and helped build it, provided the technology for it and put it in place. They sold it to them. I don't like that in case you didn't guess, right? [01:05:43] I'm all for free speech. I think it's very important for any form of a democracy. No question about it, but these companies apparently don't have a problem with that. However, now this is something, a little different. If you have employees who are being threatened and I mean threatened to serve 15 years in a Russian prison, what are you going? [01:06:10] Are you going to say no, I'm going to leave that app up. And then now all of a sudden your executives, or even a coder, somebody a programmer, like the guy that sweeps the floors, whatever are you going to let them be arrested so that you can have this app up on your Google play store or your app store over the apple side? [01:06:29] Probably not because frankly, this is something that is not worth it. So what are you. I think the only answer is what we've seen company after company do, and that is get out of Russia completely. And there was an interesting story. I read this recently about McDonald's you might remember back in the Soviet days, McDonald's worked out this deal with the Soviet union to open a McDonald's right there in downtown Moscow. [01:07:03] I guess it was pretty prominent. I don't know if it was, I think I might've been even on red square and there were people like. To have an American hamburger and it's been pretty popular the whole time. McDonald's closed that store and pulled out of the country. Starbucks has pulled out, are they going to reopen? [01:07:21] Cause I don't think either one of them said, forget about it. We're not coming back, but I know both of them have closed on operations. Automobile manufacturers from the U S have closed on operations. What is their choice? You can't just go ahead and say, okay yeah. Okay. Yeah. You're just going to arrest people or, we'll keep quiet for now and come back later. [01:07:42] What are you supposed to do? That's part of the problem with these oligarchies, with these people who are basically all powerful. Now we actually see some of that here in the us, which is just as shame, just a shame because we see these companies going ahead and cutting out free speech saying, oh, you can't say that there was a time where if you said masks work, that you would have been censored. And then there was a time where if you said masks don't work. You cloth mass don't work, you would have been censored. There was a time when you said masks aren't necessary. You would have been censored right now, but the science is settled. [01:08:27] It was just crazy. Science has never settled and oh, we could go on with this for hours and hours, but potent is not a good guy. And this article, I'm going to bring it up on the screen here again. But this article talks about. And a single year. And again, this is MSN. Potent had his political nemesis, Aloxi Novolin novel ne yeah, I got it right. [01:08:54] He had him in prison after a poisoning attempt, felled to kill him. Do you remember that whole poison in attempt? Where they gave him this really nasty radioactive bride product, as I recall, and potent went ahead and basically shut down. They pushed all of these independent news organizations to the brink of extinction. [01:09:17] Look at what happened with Russia today. The entire staff walked off on the. Saying, we're not going to report on any of these lies that are coming out of Moscow. It's happened again and again, Putin orchestrated a Kremlin controlled takeover of Russia's Facebook equivalent, and he's also issued liquidation orders against human rights organizations. [01:09:43] And so all this is going on. What are you going to do if you're. If you're a Google, right? I can see the criticism of those countries or companies should say when they're cooperating with the regimes, putting in place, things like facial recognition to, to spy on people, to have a social credit system, these great firewalls in these countries. [01:10:05] But when you have something like this happen, I forget about it. There's nothing you can do. And the crackdown is accelerated Facebook and Twitter were knocked offline by the government for millions of Russians news outlets had survived the state harassment for years, shut down in the face of a new law impose. [01:10:26] 15 year prison sentences for spreading fake news. It's incredible what has happened. And we've got to be careful here in the U S too, because we see this censorship, there's a lot of complaints about what was happening under Donald Trump president and old Biden, both Obama and Biden. [01:10:45] Both of those have done some of these same things to a lesser extent. Stick around. We'll be right back. [01:10:53] This whole war with the crane, Ukraine and Russia has brought a few things to light here over the months, and really the more than year that it's been leading up to the beginning of that war even, but we've got clear view in the news again. [01:11:09] So you can always follow along at rumble or at YouTube, but there's a great article here. [01:11:16] I have up on my screen for you to see. And this is from writer. Para carried over on MSN. And it is an exclusive story talking about Ukraine, using something called clear views. AI facial recognition. This to me is absolutely fascinating because what is happening. Is the technology that Clearview develop and has it been selling to police forces in the United States is being used on the battlefield and. [01:11:51] How here's what the technology did. And does Clearview illegally went on websites, major websites all over the world and did what we call scraping. Now, scraping is where they go to the site and they grab the pictures. So they scraped Facebook. They scraped you tube. They scraped. Dan and many more. [01:12:18] And then they put it all into a big database that told them where they found it, who that person was. And then they also took that biometric information from that image of the face and came up with some unique codes, a hash basically is what they did. And. Now what Clearview is doing is if you are a police organization, you can get a little app that runs right there on your. [01:12:46] And you have an encounter with someone you're a policeman, right? Let's say, and you just hold the camera up and it gets a picture of that person. It now finds the background information on them. And then you can use that tied into the police databases to check and see if there's any record of this person. [01:13:06] If they've been doing anything illegal. It's really quite cool. What they're able to do and scary at the same time, we use the same basic technology over in Afghanistan. So literary troops as they're out, and they're having encounters with civilians, people in the street fighters, et cetera. They could hold the device up. [01:13:29] It would identify them. It went further than just the face that actually did retinal scans and things, all kinds of cool stuff, but basically recognize the face. And they were able to tell if this was a friend of foe or. So a friend might be someone who worked as a translator who has been known to be helping the us troops in Afghanistan, et cetera. [01:13:53] So we built this huge database of hundreds, of thousands of people's biometrics person, very personal information in it. And if they were getting paid even how much they're getting paid, all of that was in the database, in the backend. And then we abruptly. And we left that equipment behind. I hope the database was destroyed. [01:14:16] I haven't found anything. Absolutely conclusive on it. That the withdrawal from Afghanistan was frankly unforgivable. It just I can't believe they did what they did at any rate. This is Clearview. This is this company. So now that same technology has moved to Ukraine. What's interesting. About this whole Ukrainian thing to me was okay, great. [01:14:42] Now they can identify people. Can they really identify a pretty much everybody? Who are they going to identify? As it turns out clear Clearview also illegally stole photos of people over in Russia and in Ukraine. So the clear view founder said that they had more than 2 billion images from. How's that right from this social media service called V contact a or somebody like that out of a database of 10 billion photos total. [01:15:16] So one out of five of the pictures they scraped was Russian, which surprised me. So the Ukrainians have been using it to identify dead Russian. And it's, they're saying it's much easier than matching fingerprints even works. If there's facial damage, it's scary to think about right. Wars, terrible. [01:15:38] Who wants to go to war? I can't believe all of the people that want to jump in there. I really feel for these people in Ukraine, what can we do? I'll start proximal interest. Research for the department of energy, found the decomposition, reduce the technology's effectiveness while a paper from 2021 showed some promising results. [01:16:01] Now, this again is an example of technology being used in a way it's never been used before. And having that ability to identify dead or living combined combatants on a field like this is just amazing. So this is the most comprehensive data set. There's critics, of course, they're saying that the facial recognition could misidentify people at checkpoints, obviously. [01:16:29] Could miss identify people in a battle mismatch could lead to civilians. Just like unfair arrests have risen from police use. And that's from Albert Kahn, executive director of surveillance, technology oversight, product project in New York. So as usual, these things can backfire and I think they probably will given a little bit of time and that's a sad. [01:16:56] Now I also want to talk about this. This is cool. Another article here, I'm pulling up on the screen right now, and this is about some hackers. Now we know that the Kremlin has been lying. Do we know that if a politician's lips are moving their line, right? Isn't that the old standby, but Russians apparently don't know this. [01:17:22] And the average Russian on the street is thinking that, okay, we're rescuing Ukraine. Isn't that just a wonderful thing? There's a couple of ways that the hackers have been getting around it. It's called a squad 3 0 3. They have this tool that's hosted at the domain. 1920 dot I N. There's

À l'occasion de la réouverture du Musée départemental Albert Kahn à Boulogne-Billancourt, en région parisienne, on part sur la planète, haute en couleurs et en images, de ce banquier philanthrope iconoclaste et visionnaire du XIXè siècle. Le voyage c'est « garder les yeux grands ouverts », disait celui qui, en 1898, une fois sa banque fondée, va créer sa première entreprise philanthropique : les bourses « Autour du monde ». Ces bourses de voyage de 15 mois, financés par Kahn, étaient alors destinés à des agrégés français, hommes d'abord, femmes et étrangers ensuite, dans l'idée de modifier le regard des élites, de les décentrer et les ouvrir au monde par l'expérience et l'immersion. Né en 1860 dans une famille juive alsacienne, Albert Kahn va orchestrer ensuite, au début du XXè siècle, une entreprise de collecte et d'inventaire de la beauté et de la réalité du monde, unique son genre : les Archives de la Planète. 72 000 autochromes,180 000 mètres de pellicules cinéma et 4 000 plaques stéréoscopiques noir et blanc vont être ramenés par une douzaine d'opérateurs, véritables aventuriers de l'image envoyés dans plus d'une cinquantaine de pays.  Un siècle plus tard, ces images sont saisissantes par leur couleur et l'intimité qu'elles dégagent encore, l'autochrome étant le premier procédé photographique en couleur naturelle inventé en 1903 par les Frères Lumière. Les films, en noir et blanc, obtenus eux à l'aide du Cinématographe créé aussi par les Frères Lumière en 1895, offre de fascinantes fenêtres sur l'état du monde au début du XXè siècle, entre progrès techniques, Première guerre mondiale et temps coloniaux. Aujourd'hui, dans le Musée départemental Albert Kahn de Boulogne-Billancourt, ces images se dévoilent dans une nouvelle muséographie et des espaces entièrement repensés par l'architecte japonais Kengo Kuma, situés sur l'ancien domaine de 4 hectares du banquier. À l'époque de Kahn, les lieux, aux allures de campus, servaient de base arrière à son projet philanthropique tourné vers un idéal de paix et de progrès, de fondations en bourses de voyage, d'imprimerie en laboratoire de biologie ou de développement de films. Aujourd'hui, ces lieux servent d'écrin à de nouveaux espaces permanents et temporaires d'exposition, qui offrent une plongée inédite dans l'œuvre et la trajectoire hors-norme de cet homme. Un homme insaisissable en quête de lumières et d'harmonie qui finira ruiné par la crise de 1930, et qui aura finalement passé toute sa fortune et son temps à défendre une meilleure connaissance du monde et des peuples, afin de garantir la paix et l'entente, sa grande œuvre, son idéal envers et contre tout.

Du 2 avril au 13 novembre 2022, cette exposition passionnante s'empare du voyage, du tour du monde entrepris par Albert Kahn en 1908-1909 aux différentes représentations et imaginaires que le voyage convoque et suscite, à travers la photographie et le film du début du XXè siècle à nos jours.   Diaporama

durée : 00:58:21 - Toute une vie - Lorsque Albert Kahn s'éteint en novembre 1940, la guerre est là. Ce qui l'a mobilisé toute sa vie, la recherche de la paix, est un échec. Le krach boursier de 1929, ainsi que les sommes englouties dans le mécénat, ont ruiné ce banquier philanthrope.

Les images de la guerre, et singulièrement des guerres passées, imprègnent notre mémoire collective, notamment par le prisme de la photographie. Certains clichés, tels que Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima (Joe Rosenthal) ou Le Drapeau rouge sur le Reichstag (Evgueni Khaldeï), sont même devenus des icônes mondiales. Mais qui sont ceux qui les ont produits ou diffusés ? Dans quelles conditions et pour qui ? Quels sont les ressorts de cette fabrique de l'image de la guerre depuis le milieu du XIXe siècle jusqu'à nos jours ?Le musée de l'Armée présente pour la première fois une exposition consacrée non pas au conflit, mais à la représentation de celui-ci par la photographie, qui va bien au-delà du reportage de guerre. Depuis l'apparition de ce nouveau médium sur un champ de bataille au milieu du XIXe siècle, les rapports entre photographie et guerre sont complexes, relevant de pratiques plurielles (amateurs ou professionnelles), d'intentions et d'usages multiples (informer, documenter, prouver, convaincre, légitimer, tromper, dénoncer, témoigner, se souvenir…) dans les champs les plus variés (militaire, politique, économique, mais aussi social, culturel et esthétique).Plaques de verre, planches, albums, portfolios, portraits, vues stéréoscopiques, petits et grands formats… Du Siège de Rome (1849) à l'actuelle guerre en Syrie, en passant par la guerre de Sécession, la guerre de 1870, les deux conflits mondiaux, la guerre du Vietnam, la Guerre Froide ou encore les guerres de décolonisation, le parcours réunit plus de 300 photographies faisant le récit d'une construction médiatique de la guerre à travers l'image. Photographes amateurs et professionnels y confrontent la singularité de leurs regards et de leurs objectifs, parmi lesquels ceux de Margaret Bourke-White, Gerda Grepp, Lee Miller, Robert Capa, Paul Corcuff, Marc Riboud, Don McCullin, Gilles Caron, Nick Ut, Yan Morvan, Laurent Van der Stockt, Richard Mosse, Émeric Lhuisset ou encore Michel Slomka.[...] Voir Acast.com/privacy pour les informations sur la vie privée et l'opt-out.

Après six ans de travaux, le public va pouvoir redécouvrir le musée et les jardins Albert Kahn, à Boulogne-Billancourt, près de Paris. Un nouveau bâtiment de verre et de bois signé de l'architecte japonais Kengo Kuma, mais surtout une incroyable collection d'autochromes constituée par le banquier et philanthrope Albert Kahn qui, au début du XXe siècle, s'était donné pour mission de photographier et de recenser le monde. Pour son ouverture, en plus de son exposition permanente, le musée présente une exposition temporaire jusqu'au 13 novembre : Autour du Monde, la traversée des images, d'Albert Kahn à Curiosity.

Pour cette exposition inaugurale, c'est le thème du voyage, si cher à Albert Kahn, qui s'est naturellement imposé. Sous le commissariat de Magali Mélandri, directrice déléguée à la conservation et de Clément Poché, chargé d'exposition, Autour du monde « La traversée des images, d'Albert Kahn à Curiosity » propose une exploration des représentations du voyage depuis le début du XXe siècle à nos jours. Les visiteurs sont embarqués dans un périple aux origines des « Archives de la Planète », pour découvrir la diversité d'un monde en mutation, marqué par l'irruption de la modernité industrielle et financière et l'essor des déplacements. Collections patrimoniales répondent à des oeuvres contemporaines, pour parcourir, en 400 photographies et films, plus d'un siècle d'images de voyage.L'exposition se déploie autour d'un noyau historique de la collection, le « Voyage autour du monde », réalisé par Albert Kahn entre 1908 et 1909 accompagné de son chauffeur-mécanicien, Albert Dutertre, formé spécialement à la photographie et au cinéma. Environ 3 500 plaques stéréoscopiques – prises de vues en noir et blanc ou en couleur permettant de restituer le relief –, 2 000 mètres de pellicule – soit 1 h 30 de film – sont aujourd'hui conservées de ce périple. À partir de cet axe, trois séquences thématiques explorent successivement les modes de représentations du voyage – de l'image – mémoire au cliché – , les manières d'expérimenter ce rapport au monde et de se découvrir soi-même, et enfin les transformations des pratiques comme des images, liées à l'abolition des distances grâce à l'évolution des moyens de communication. Dans chacune de ces séquences, le parcours d'exposition établit un dialogue entre des images peu connues, voire inédites des collections du musée et les travaux de photographes et d'artistes contemporains. Ces rebonds photographiques entre XXe et XXIe siècle soulignent toute l'actualité des collections du musée départemental Albert-Kahn.

Why Is Russia Password Spraying Hurting You? What Are They Trying to Do? And What Is It? This is one of the top topics I've had people ask about lately: How can you protect yourself and your business against Russian hackers? So I've got a presentation. We're going to run through it. We're going to talk about what you can do about it. [Automated transcript follows] This has been a long time coming. I have been doing a lot over the years of webinars of online meetings, trying to help people understand what's going on, what can be done. [00:00:28] And I got a great email this week from one of the listeners. Who's been a man on my email list now for years, I'm not even sure how many years. And he was saying, Hey, thanks for giving all of this information for free for small businesses. And afford it. And I got to thinking because there've been a lot of requests lately, for instance, backups how should I be doing them? [00:00:52] What should I be doing? And a number of other topics that really all go together into the, how do I protect myself, my business. From ransomware from these Russian hackers. So that's what we're going to be talking about today. We're going to go through a few of these. This is going to be a series. [00:01:10] We're going to continue this here and weeks ahead, and I appreciate all your feedback. And if you miss part of it, make sure you email me just M. Craig peterson.com. Let me know, and I'll be glad to send some of it to you. Now I'm recording this on video as well. So it's great when you're driving around and listening in picking up some tidbits. [00:01:34] And if you do want to see the recorded version again, dropping them in an email to me@craigpeterson.com or search for me on YouTube or on one of the other sites that are out there like grumble and you'll. This as I release it. Cause this is going to take a few weeks to really get into the whole thing. [00:01:55] So let's get started. I'm going to pull this up here. Full screen. For those watching at home and what this is called today, we're talking about protecting your business and your self from Russian hackers because they have been out there. They have been causing just all kinds of problems, but there's a few things that you can do. [00:02:18] And I have them up on the screen here. Let me pull them up, but I want to get into the background first. Russian ransomware group. They're a bunch of bad guys and it's called Conti. Now. Conti has been around for a long time. These are the guys that have been ransoming us. They're the guys who ran to mean the businesses they've been rants. [00:02:40] Government, you might've heard them. They've got into hospitals. They have been all over the place and they've raised a whole lot of. For the Russians. I'm also going to tell you about a couple of things you can do here. Cause there's a real neat trick when it comes to keeping Russians out of your computers, but Conti decided, Hey, listen, we are all for Russia and president and Putin. [00:03:03] So they came out with an official warning, oh, I want to read this to it says if anybody. We'll decide to organize a cyber attack or any war activities against Russia. We are going to use our all possible resources to strike back at the critical infrastructures of an enemy. Yeah, no, not the best English, but much better than my Russian. [00:03:25] I got to say that I know two words or so in Russian, but they said that they were announcing full support for president. That's a pretty bad thing. If you asked me, they also have ties to Russian intelligence intelligence, but what are we talking about really? Think of the KGB. [00:03:43] The FSB is what they're called nowadays, but directly tie. China and North Korea, Iran, or also now tied in with Russia to varying degrees, but all of them are a little bit concerned about getting into it a little too much, but we're going to talk about their tactics. That's what's important today. What are they doing? [00:04:05] Why are they doing it? What can you do about. So the first thing is password sprain. This is big deal. I've got a nice big slide up here. I like that color blue. I don't know about you, but I think it's pretty, but password sprain is something we all need to understand a little bit better. It's a brute force attack that has been really hurting. [00:04:30] Many of us. Let me see if I can get this to work. For some reason it has decided it just doesn't want. Let me see here. What is up? Oh, is something isn't it's just, I'm getting a white screen, but it's a brute force attack targets users who have common passwords. Now this is a problem. When we're talking about passwords. [00:04:55] If you have a password that has been breached in any of these breaches that have gone on over the last, however long, right? 30 years plus now that password is known to the bad guy. So what they'll do is they'll take that common password and they'll start to try it. So password sprain is where they will go to a bank site or they'll go to Google. [00:05:21] The, oftentimes they're trying to get at your email accounts. So if you have Google email or Yahoo or Hotmail, they'll try it. Use passwords that they have found against accounts that they have found on those various sites that ends up being quite a big problem for everybody out there. Okay. I got that screen back here. [00:05:42] So I'll put that up for those people who are well. But they will send multiple times attacks using variations of these passwords. And it's known as a low and slow method of password hacking because if they were to go bam, and send all of these passwords and login attempts. They get caught. [00:06:06] The automated systems would say, Hey, wait a minute. This is not good. We're going to cut you off. In fact, that's what I do for my client. We have remote access using SSH, which is a an encryption session so that we can have a terminal session. And if you try and log in three times, We automatically zap you, right? [00:06:28] We shut you down. So they take a very slow approach to this password sprain technique. And they're also going after volume, which makes a whole lot of sense. And there are right now, billions of passwords usernames, email addresses that have been stolen that are sitting out in the dark. So you've got to make sure that you are not reusing passwords. [00:06:54] How many times have we talked about that? You've got one common password that you're using over and again, while that's a problem, but they're not going to keep hacking your account. They're going to switch from one account to another because they don't want to get locked out. [00:07:09] Just like I lock out somebody who's trying to get in. So if someone's coming from that same. IP address that same internet site. And they're trying to log into that same account multiple times. Bam. They are gone. So with path's word sprain, they're trying to get around the problem of you noticing they're trying to get into a bunch of different accounts and they try and leverage it. [00:07:34] So they'll oftentimes use multiple computers that they've stolen access to. We've talked about that before too. It gets to be a real big. Now they're also targeting these single sign-on and cloud-based applications, because once they're on. Using one of these federated authenticated authentication protocols, they can mask the malicious traffic. [00:08:00] We've heard some of these hacks lately where they're using a token that they managed to pick up from somebody's email, I account, or they got onto Microsoft and they got into the email account on Microsoft. That happened recently. In a supply chain attack, solar winds. You heard about that 20, 21, right? [00:08:21] So they're going after these email applications, including Microsoft or Microsoft has done they're going after routers and internet of things, devices for a very good reason, those IOT devices, which are things like your smart lights, they can be. Controlling the cameras outside, they go on and on there's thousands, millions of them. [00:08:44] Now I actually all the way through your microwave, they tend to not be very well protected. So that's a real big target for them. So step. They want to acquire a list of usernames. Step two, they're going to spray the passwords. Where do they get those passwords in those usernames? Or they get them from breaches. [00:09:06] So again, if you have an account that's breached at some online shopping site, a big one, a small one, it doesn't really mean. That particular breach is now well known and they can, will and do gain access to your account which is step three, gain access to it. It gets to be a serious problem. [00:09:26] Okay. How do you know if you are under attack? Number one? There is a spike in failed. Log-ins this is where having a system and there's technical terms is tough for this. I'm trying to avoid a lot of those terms, but this is where the system is watching logins, noticing that there's a problem and going ahead and stopping it, not just noticing that, but stop. Very important to do. There are a high number of locked accounts, which means what it means that again, someone's been trying to log in. You should make sure that your account, if there are invalid, lock-ins automatic. Locks it out after some number of attempts and five attempts is usually considered to be okay. [00:10:14] I know on my phone, for instance, I have a higher number of the neck, cause sometimes the grandkids get at it. But when it comes to your business account, when it comes to your bank account, you probably don't want to have a whole bunch of. Of a attempts, and then in known or valid or invalid, I should say user attempts again. [00:10:36] Why are they trying to log in with a username that just doesn't exist? Yeah, it can be a problem. Hey, when we come back. We're going to talk about some steps. Like you can take here to really remediate, maybe even stop a password spraying attack. I've already given you a few ideas here, but what are some act of things that you can do, particularly for a small business to really protect yourself? [00:11:04] Hey, stick around. We'll be right back. Craig peterson.com. [00:11:10] Russia has, hacking our computers, Russia's continuing to hack our computers and this is a real problem. So we are going to talk right now about how to stop some of these things. We already talked about password sprain. How do you start? [00:11:26] There are a lot of things we have to pay attention to, and that's what I'm going to be doing in the weeks ahead. [00:11:33] We're going to be going through some of the things you need to do to keep yourself safe. Keep your business safe in this really dangerous online. There are so many things going on. So many people that are losing their retirement businesses, losing their operating accounts. We've seen it before with clients of ours while you know their clients now. [00:11:59] And it was just a devastating thing to them. So I don't want that to happen to you now, if you are interested. All of this is recorded and I am doing this as video as well. We've got slides and you can find out more about it. Just email me M e@craigpeterson.com. It's really that simple. And I didn't let me know. [00:12:24] And I'll be glad to send it off to you. Okay. This is available to anybody I'm trying to help. And we've had a lot of emails recently about some of these things. So th this is covering everything from the password spraying we're talking about right now through backups and other things that you need to do. [00:12:43] Let's get going on our sprain problem. So w what are the steps that we need to take an order to really remediate against one of these password spraying attacks? And frankly, it is. Oh, a lot to do. It has a lot to do with our users and what we do, if you're a business, if you are an individual, we need to be using longer passwords. [00:13:12] Now we're not talking about all of these random characters that we used to have. I remember having to have my password be at least four characters, long APAC, when didn't even have to have a username, it was just all based on the password. And things changed over the years, the latest standards that are out there right now come from this too, which is the national Institute for science and technology. [00:13:37] They are the guys that put together, all of the guidelines said federal government and businesses need to follow. And they're telling us that a longer passwords means elaborate pass phrase. So you should use 15 character passwords. I had an article just a couple of weeks ago saying that an eight character password can be cracked almost instantly, certainly within an hour, any eight character password. [00:14:08] So if you're still using that, you've got to make a change. And obviously nine characters is a lot more possibilities, takes a lot longer to crack. I don't have those numbers right in front of me, but 15 is the ideal. So use pass phrases instead of single words. So phrases like I don't know secretary of one, the Kentucky. [00:14:34] There you go. There's a phrase. So what you would do is put, maybe dashes between each one of the words. Maybe you would go ahead and use a comma, put some numbers in there, put some special characters in upper lowercase, right? So it's basically on uncrackable at that point. And that's what you want. [00:14:53] Next one. When we're talking about rules for your passwords, the best passwords are the passwords that you can remember without writing them down and words that don't make sense to anyone else's. I remember taking a memory course a few years back and they had random words and you had to remember them. [00:15:18] And the whole idea was okay, visualize this happening. And as I recall, man, it's been a lot of years I won't say decades, but it hasn't been. Since I did this, I still remember a part of it, it was first word was airplane. Next was all envelope. The next one was paper clip. Next one was pencil. [00:15:38] So I visualized an airplane flying into an all envelope and that all envelope then goes into a paper clip and a pencil writes on the outside. Like it's addressing it to someone. That is a good little password, actually airplane or envelope, paperclip, a pencil with a mixed case and maybe a number two or special symbol thrown in. [00:16:05] Those are the types of rules that we're talking about. The types of rules that really. Next up here. Oops. Wrong keyboard. Stay away from frequently used passwords. We've talked about this many times. If you're using one of the better password managers, like for instance, one password, you will automatically have any passwords that you are there in Shirin or that it creates you'll have them checked via a website out there. [00:16:37] It's called. Yeah. Okay. It's called. Have I been poned I, and I hated to say this because how do you spell it? It's all one big, long word. Have I been poned to.com and poned is P w N E d.com. It will tell you if a password that you're trying to use is a known password. If it has been found out in the wild, okay. [00:17:02] Use unique passwords for every site you visit, I can't stress this enough. We were talking about password sprain. If you use the same password and email address on multiple sites, you're in. Because all they have to do is try your email address and your password for whichever site it is that they might want to try out. [00:17:27] Remember, many of them are trying to get into your email and they have done that successfully. With Microsoft email, if you have their Microsoft 365 service and you might want to read the fine print there very carefully, because Microsoft does not guarantee much of anything. You make sure you back it up yourself. [00:17:50] Make sure you do all of these things because Microsoft just plain, isn't doing them for you. Next one here. Next up is our password manager. And I mentioned this before installing and using a password manager is phenomenal. It automates the generation of passwords. If you have. Integrated with your web browser. [00:18:15] It now allows your web browser to work with your password manager. So when you go to a site, you can have it pull up your passwords. How could it be much easier than that? It's really rather simple. That way it's keeping track of your logins. And again, One password.com is the one I recommend and people get confused. [00:18:36] When I say that, when I'm saying one password, I don't mean only have one password used for everything. One password is a name of a company. Okay. So it Talking about only having a single password, but use a password manager. And I've got all of these up on the screen right now. If you're interested in getting copies of these, you can go ahead and just email me M e@craigpeterson.com. [00:19:04] And I'll make sure I send you a copy of the slide deck of this presentation as well. Cause this is just so important, frankly, but having these points is going to be huge for you. Now strange activity. That's another very big deal. And we're going to talk about this when we get back, what is it? [00:19:25] What does it mean? But I'm going to hold off the rest of this, I think for another week. But right now, what let's hit this, we're talking about odd log-in attacks. A lot of login attempts, the excessive login attempts trends in unusual activities take any, you need to basically take measures to block it and determine if this activity is legitimate. [00:19:50] Is someone just for forgetting their password and spraying themselves or what's going on? Okay. There you go. Simple. Hey, everybody, you can find out a lot more and you'll be getting links to this automatically to these videos, et cetera. If you're on my email list, Craig peterson.com and you can email me M e@craigpeterson.com. [00:20:15] We'd be glad to send you this or any other information I might have. All right. Take care. We'll be right back. [00:20:23] Putin has been working for a while. In fact, it looks like as early as September in 2021, Putin started going after major us corporation. So we're going to talk about that. And what does it mean. [00:20:39] Putin has been going crazy for a while. I'm going to put this up on the screen for those of you who are watching either on rumble or YouTube, but Putin planned this whole invasion apparently quite a while ago. [00:20:56] And I got an article from the Washington post up on MSN talking about what Putin did at least a little bit about what he did. And you can see right here if you're following. That Russian agents came to the home of Google's top executive and Moscow. And what they did is gave an ultimatum. They told that Google, a senior executive that they needed. [00:21:24] Pull down an app that was in use in Russia. And this app was polling. It was for people to do polls and say, Hey what do you think about Putin's garden performance, et cetera. We do them in the U S all of the time you hear about the polls right left and center. Poland, which is a small country next to another small country called Ukraine next to a large country called Russia. [00:21:50] But we're talking about Paul's favoribility polls. What do you think they should be doing? What do you think that the government should be doing and maybe what they should not be. So Putin didn't like this. He didn't like this at all. And so what he did is he sent a couple of guys ex KGB, FSB, the secret police over in Russia by to visit this Google executive. [00:22:16] If you're the Google executive, what are you going to do? If you Google. Yeah, you're going to say, oh my gosh, I'm out of here. So I'm not sure if she, if this executive was an American or Russian, this article doesn't seem to be clear about it, but what happened is they said, okay let's go hide. [00:22:41] So they rented a hotel room for the. They put her in it and they rented the room under an assumed name. So it wasn't the real name of the executive. It wasn't tied into Google and they thought, okay, now we're pretty safe. Cause you got a hotel security, I guess there are a couple of Google people hanging out with her and they felt pretty safe. [00:23:04] What happens next? There is a knock on the door. These same agents, again, that are believed to be Russian secret. Police showed up at her room and told her that the cock was still ticking because they had given her 24 hours for Google to take down the app because Putin, dental. People weren't particularly pleased with Putin. [00:23:31] So at that point, of course it was forget about it. And within hours, Google had pulled down the app. Now you might complain, right? A lot of people might complain about it. It's one thing for a company like Google or apple to capitulate, to a government to do maybe some censorship, like the great firewall of China. [00:23:54] You might've heard of that where the Chinese citizens can't get certain information. Russia has something pretty similar and us companies have gone ahead and helped build it, provided the technology for it and put it in place. They sold it to them. I don't like that in case you didn't guess, right? [00:24:12] I'm all for free speech. I think it's very important for any form of a democracy. No question about it, but these companies apparently don't have a problem with that. However, now this is something, a little different. If you have employees who are being threatened and I mean threatened to serve 15 years in a Russian prison, what are you going? [00:24:39] Are you going to say no, I'm going to leave that app up. And then now all of a sudden your executives, or even a coder, somebody a programmer, like the guy that sweeps the floors, whatever are you going to let them be arrested so that you can have this app up on your Google play store or your app store over the apple side? [00:24:59] Probably not because frankly, this is something that is not worth it. So what are you. I think the only answer is what we've seen company after company do, and that is get out of Russia completely. And there was an interesting story. I read this recently about McDonald's you might remember back in the Soviet days, McDonald's worked out this deal with the Soviet union to open a McDonald's right there in downtown Moscow. [00:25:32] I guess it was pretty prominent. I don't know if it was, I think I might've been even on red square and there were people like. To have an American hamburger and it's been pretty popular the whole time. McDonald's closed that store and pulled out of the country. Starbucks has pulled out, are they going to reopen? [00:25:50] Cause I don't think either one of them said, forget about it. We're not coming back, but I know both of them have closed on operations. Automobile manufacturers from the U S have closed on operations. What is their choice? You can't just go ahead and say, okay yeah. Okay. Yeah. You're just going to arrest people or, we'll keep quiet for now and come back later. [00:26:12] What are you supposed to do? That's part of the problem with these oligarchies, with these people who are basically all powerful. Now we actually see some of that here in the us, which is just as shame, just a shame because we see these companies going ahead and cutting out free speech saying, oh, you can't say that there was a time where if you said masks work, that you would have been censored. And then there was a time where if you said masks don't work. You cloth mass don't work, you would have been censored. There was a time when you said masks aren't necessary. You would have been censored right now, but the science is settled. [00:26:56] It was just crazy. Science has never settled and oh, we could go on with this for hours and hours, but potent is not a good guy. And this article, I'm going to bring it up on the screen here again. But this article talks about. And a single year. And again, this is MSN. Potent had his political nemesis, Aloxi Novolin novel ne yeah, I got it right. [00:27:23] He had him in prison after a poisoning attempt, felled to kill him. Do you remember that whole poison attempt? Where they gave him this really nasty radioactive bride product, as I recall, and potent went ahead and basically shut down. They pushed all of these independent news organizations to the brink of extinction. [00:27:46] Look at what happened with Russia today. The entire staff walked off on the. Saying, we're not going to report on any of these lies that are coming out of Moscow. It's happened again and again, Putin orchestrated a Kremlin controlled takeover of Russia's Facebook equivalent, and he's also issued liquidation orders against human rights organizations. [00:28:12] And so all this is going on. What are you going to do if you're. If you're a Google, right? I can see the criticism of those countries or companies should say when they're cooperating with the regimes, putting in place, things like facial recognition to, to spy on people, to have a social credit system, these great firewalls in these countries. [00:28:34] But when you have something like this happen, I forget about it. There's nothing you can do. And the crackdown is accelerated Facebook and Twitter were knocked offline by the government for millions of Russians news outlets had survived the state harassment for years, shut down in the face of a new law impose. [00:28:55] 15 year prison sentences for spreading fake news. It's incredible what has happened. And we've got to be careful here in the U S too, because we see this censorship, there's a lot of complaints about what was happening under Donald Trump president and old Biden, both Obama and Biden. [00:29:15] Both of those have done some of these same things to a lesser extent. Stick around. We'll be right back. [00:29:23] This whole war with the crane, Ukraine and Russia has brought a few things to light here over the months, and really the more than year that it's been leading up to the beginning of that war even, but we've got clear view in the news again. Yeah. [00:29:39] am also besides broadcasting this on the radio, we're doing it in video two. So you can always follow along at rumble or at YouTube, but there's a great article here. [00:29:52] I have up on my screen for you to see. And this is from writer. Para carried over on MSN. And it is an exclusive story talking about Ukraine, using something called clear views. AI facial recognition. This to me is absolutely fascinating because what is happening. Is the technology that Clearview develop and has it been selling to police forces in the United States is being used on the battlefield and. [00:30:27] How here's what the technology did. And does Clearview illegally went on websites, major websites all over the world and did what we call scraping. Now, scraping is where they go to the site and they grab the pictures. So they scraped Facebook. They scraped you tube. They scraped. Dan and many more. [00:30:54] And then they put it all into a big database that told them where they found it, who that person was. And then they also took that biometric information from that image of the face and came up with some unique codes, a hash basically is what they did. And. Now what Clearview is doing is if you are a police organization, you can get a little app that runs right there on your. [00:31:22] And you have an encounter with someone you're a policeman, right? Let's say, and you just hold the camera up and it gets a picture of that person. It now finds the background information on them. And then you can use that tied into the police databases to check and see if there's any record of this person. [00:31:42] If they've been doing anything illegal. It's really quite cool. What they're able to do and scary at the same time, we use the same basic technology over in Afghanistan. So literary troops as they're out, and they're having encounters with civilians, people in the streets, fighters, et cetera. They could hold the device up. [00:32:04] It would identify them. It went further than just the face that actually did retinal scans and things, all kinds of cool stuff, but basically recognize the face. And they were able to tell if this was a friend of foe or. So a friend might be someone who worked as a translator who has been known to be helping the us troops in Afghanistan, et cetera. [00:32:29] So we built this huge database of hundreds, of thousands of people's biometrics person, very personal information in it. And if they were getting paid even how much they're getting paid, all of that was in the database, in the backend. And then we abruptly. And we left that equipment behind. I hope the database was destroyed. [00:32:52] I haven't found anything. Absolutely conclusive on it. That the withdrawal from Afghanistan was frankly unforgivable. It just I can't believe they did what they did at any rate. This is Clearview. This is this company. So now that same technology has moved to Ukraine. What's interesting. About this whole Ukrainian thing to me was okay, great. [00:33:18] Now they can identify people. Can they really identify a pretty much everybody? Who are they going to identify? As it turns out clear Clearview also illegally stole photos of people over in Russia and in Ukraine. So the clear view founder said that they had more than 2 billion images from. How's that right from this social media service called V contact a or somebody like that out of a database of 10 billion photos total. [00:33:52] So one out of five of the pictures they scraped was Russian, which surprised me. So the Ukrainians have been using it to identify dead Russian. And it's, they're saying it's much easier than matching fingerprints even works. If there's facial damage, it's scary to think about right. Wars, terrible. [00:34:14] Who wants to go to war? I can't believe all of the people that want to jump in there. I really feel for these people in Ukraine, what can we do? I'll start approximately. Research for the department of energy, found the decomposition, reduce the technology's effectiveness while a paper from 2021 showed some promising results. [00:34:36] Now, this again is an example of technology being used in a way it's never been used before. And having that ability to identify dead or living combat combatants on a field like this is just amazing. So this is the most comprehensive data set. There's critics, of course, they're saying that the facial recognition could misidentify people at checkpoints, obviously, right? [00:35:04] Could miss identify people in a battle mismatch could lead to civilian deaths, just like unfair arrests have risen from police use. And that's from Albert Kahn, executive director of surveillance, technology oversight, product, project, and new. So as usual, these things can backfire and I think they probably will given a little bit of time and that's a sad thing. [00:35:31] Now I also want to talk about this. This is cool. Another article here, I'm pulling up on the screen right now. And this is about some hackers. Now we know that the Kremlin's been lying. We know that if a politician's lips are moving their line, isn't that the old standby, but Russians apparently don't know this. [00:35:56] And the average Russian on the street is thinking that, okay, we're rescuing Ukraine. Isn't that just a wonderful thing. There's a couple of ways that the hackers have been getting around it. It's called a squad 3 0 3. They have this tool that's hosted at the domain. 1920 dot. There's an Indian domain and it loads a pre-written statement in Russian into your native SMS app. [00:36:29] In other words, the app that you use for texting and the idea is they that they've taken, oh, let's see here. Tens of thousands of trying to remember the exact number of stolen phone numbers from Russia. So all of those hacks that we've talked about for all of these years, those hacks have many of them phone numbers in them. [00:36:54] And they've been taking those phone numbers from some of those hacks and using them to send out about 6.5. Million text messages. So what happens is you, your phone, your actual phone ends up sending a text in Russia saying something to the effect of dear Russians. Your media is being censored. The Kremlin is lying. [00:37:18] Find out the truth about Ukraine on the free internet, and then the telegram app time to overthrow dictator. Yeah, that's not going to cause any problems, is it right? I'll put that up on the screen again for people who might read Russian. Cause it's got it in Cyrillic. Okay. And then you have the option to get an, another set of text and figure it out. [00:37:40] So the phone number, you can see there, you can copy it and paste it into your app and off the message goes. It's very cool. And in the daily dog, They're quoting a member of this squad 3 0 3 saying that this is a non-violent communications project. It's bypassing Russia's crackdown on the news. [00:38:02] They're sensitive. They're censorship of the news. And by the way, the domain 1920 dot. Refers to Poland's surprise victory against Russian forces just after world war one and the Bolshevik Menshevik revolution. You might remember all that stuff, that you studied all those years ago. So it's interesting. [00:38:23] We'll see what happens. But this hacking group also claimed that they were attacked probably again by Russian hackers, the FSB ex. Using a distributed denial of service attack shortly after launch. And they put CloudFlare in front of their domain. Now we use CloudFlare for one of our, something, not one, but some of our customers. [00:38:50] What CloudFlare is a website that's designed to basically buffer your website when it's been served. So if all of a sudden you get a ton of legitimate request, your site's going to stay up. It's going to be able to respond to people. The other big advantage to CloudFlare is what's happening here with 1920, Diane CloudFlare goes ahead and will block some of these denial of service attack. [00:39:19] So I think that's pretty darn cool. Many texts apparently are met with silence. Some say they've been able to converse with Russian citizens. One user who remained anonymous said they had made. The text messages they'd made using the tool really worked it says, I want the people of Russia to know the truth. [00:39:38] The government is doing to the people of Ukraine. This is a quote from the daily dot going to pull this up too. This is a a tweet here on Twitter and. Yeah. It's from the anonymous, that hacker group, you've probably heard of them before. Cause they've done a lot of nasty stuff over the years, but he says it's been doing just absolutely amazing things for him. [00:40:02] Let's see here. Can we hear this? Here we go. Ah, I got to unmute it. Let's see. Where is my mute? There it is. So this guy's name is Rodney. He is. D Jang, oh my dog. Get to Django my dog. And he's got a really great little testimonial there about that. It works and his tweet has had 4,300 views and it's good. [00:40:30] Again, another way around censorship now, Twitter, of course could decide they're going to sensor and that could be a problem too, but that's also why we now have alternatives to Twitter. And some of these other sites that are out there that are doing a whole bunch of blocking really, they don't like you. [00:40:51] And by the way, the reference to Telegraph was fascinating because they are using. In order to get around censorship. Again, many people are using it to to send information about what is really, truly happening in Ukraine. So a lot of stuff from the beginning of the war here, visit me online. Craig peterson.com. [00:41:14] Get my newsletter and get the free up-to-date trainings. [00:41:20] They pass the infrastructure bill, which means now it's time to figure out what is in the infrastructure bill. And we're going to talk about the technology that they decided to fund the technology. That's going to win the game because it has billions of dollars of federal money behind it. [00:41:36] This is disappointing bully it's normal, right? [00:41:40] It's absolutely normal because the federal government has always been one that picks winners and losers. If you're old enough, you remember, of course, VHS. Tapes right too. Do you remember beta tapes? Beta max tapes. Beta max was really quite the standard for professional production for the longest time, a better technology, frankly, a lot better than VHS. [00:42:06] Same. Thing's true with beta, but beta lost. And of course we ended up with VHS tapes. That's an example of technologies that were backed by investors. And we've seen a lot of that. Look at what's happened with the Serono trial, again, technology backed by investors. And it turned out to not work and in quite a dramatic way, frankly. [00:42:33] We've seen that again and again, and keep hitting my mic here and the problem that we really have, isn't so much that investors get things wrong because they. I was talking with a friend of mine. Who's has been an angel investor and part of VC partnerships for a long time. And he was saying, we're lucky if we get maybe one out of 20 times, we get. [00:42:57] Now, these are professionals and my friend, he's a technology guy. He and I contracted together at the same time over at digital equipment corporation. And he came to me for a lot of advice about business. Now, I look back and think my gosh, the way he did it. You can have all kinds of decisions in life. [00:43:18] Some are going to bring you closer to family. Some are going to bring you more peace and joy and happiness, and some are going to give you very gray hair that you're going to lose very quickly. And he chose the kind of the gray hair. But he was really clear about that. Cause I had said to him, what is a one-time out of 10 VCs make money. [00:43:39] And that's when he corrected me. He said, no, it's really one out of 20, if they're lucky, because that doesn't even happen all of the time. Now think about him. He was working on the scuzzy subsystem, which is. Complicated topic, but basically the ability for a computer to be able to talk to its hard desks. [00:43:58] Okay. Let's just keep it simple. And I was working in the kernel, which is the core of the operating system and was rewriting kernel modules and routines. To work with a few different types of features and functions. I was in very deep very complicated. He was in rather deep, rather complicated. [00:44:19] There's always a battle by the way, between compiler people and kernel people as to who has the more complicated job, but he wasn't either. So he just a Colonel guy guess. So he went on. He started a company. He got VC angel funding and VC funding. He made a card for your computer that you could plug in that would provide not just scuzzy support, but he moved the file system out of the operating system onto the card. [00:44:50] I that's something I had actually done a decade earlier with the network moving it out. But anyways, that's a different story entirely. So many things I've done all my life that I wish I'd been able to monetize. But anyways, w he doesn't, he's not a slacker. Let me put it that way. When it comes to technology and neither are his partners, and yet one time out of 20 and along comes the infrastructure. [00:45:14] They call it the infrastructure, but it really bothers me to call bills things that they're not the infrastructure bill that had. What was it? About five, 6% actually going to infrastructure. It's like the Democrats under president, the last president Obama they, he had this shovel-ready jobs, which of course wasn't true. [00:45:35] And most of the money didn't go to building infrastructure. It just got worse. It's just crazy and we're not paying attention. So I'm going to help you right now. Enough ranting and raving. The infrastructure bill contains money for some things. We'll talk about a few of them here in a minute and also has new regulations. [00:45:56] And one of those regulations that I've been talking about on the radio this week is this requirement to put kill switches in all new cars. That is really a big deal. Now a kill switch of course, is something that will stop the engine and it'll stop the car. That's the whole idea. And there's various types that have been bantered bandied about including pulling the car over to the side of the road. [00:46:25] If the driver stops responding as a driver might have a heart attack, or maybe they fell asleep, maybe something happened in that car should probably pull over and get out of traffic, turn on the flashers which then makes it a target. Apparently for some of these Teslas, we've seen articles about that in the new. [00:46:44] Yeah, don't park on the side of the road. They, I was in emergency medical for a long time. And one of the things I can pass along to that may save your life is if you have to pull over, do not stay in the car, do not stand in front of the. And particularly in the evening or at night because the flashing lights and the car at the side of the road is a beacon for drunk drivers to come and hit you as well as some of these autonomous vehicles, apparently just get out of the car. [00:47:16] Behind the car off the road. Okay. Go off the road behind the car, not next to the car off the road, not in front of the car, off the road, behind the car. So if it does get hit, you are less likely to suffer severe damage yourself, but this kills switch. That's part of this bill that was passed in sign, of course, a hidden part requires all manufacturers to include the ability. [00:47:44] For police departments and potentially others. And this is where some of the problem comes in to be able to stop the. Now you might remember back in 98, there's a Saifai series called the X-Files. It was very cool series. And there's an episode called kill switch about an artificial intelligence gone wild. [00:48:07] And that, that is of course a while ago back when most people were still using dial up modem. But this was a tale of technology, run a muck, and it was warning about handing too much of your life over to technology. Oh, that's one thing. But in this case, isn't it safer, right? Because somebody is whipping through neighborhoods at 80 miles an hour in their car, trying to avoid police. [00:48:37] Shouldn't have, please be able to stop that car and pull it. The problem is multifold frankly, and having this kill switch one is what constitutes law abiding. There's a great article in motorists.com and it shows a picture of this down in New Zealand. Our car was pulled over. And the police found the trunk was full of contraband. [00:49:02] Now we've seen this before, right? And movies, Miami vice and others, where they pull over the car. It's got all this contraband in the trunk. It's cocaine and various other things. No. This isn't Auckland New Zealand and the trunk was full of Kentucky fried chicken meat. They were running Kentucky fried chicken, just like the Kennedys, running illegal booze back in the day. Yeah. That's how they made their millions. They were running Kentucky fried chicken. Now this bill that was signed into law by president Biden states that this kills switch, which uses referred to as a safety device, must passively monitor the performance of a driver of a motor vehicle to accurately identify whether that driver may be impaired. [00:49:54] In other words, big brother will be constantly monitoring how you drive. If you do something that the system has been programmed to recognize as driver impairment or unsafe driving your car could just shut off, which could be incredibly dangerous. I want to point out this week too. There's another article I read about Teslas and how Tesla had introduced last fall, a feature. [00:50:23] So you could set how the car was going to drive. Do you want to drive? Real cool, laid back fashion. Do you want the car to drive an average way or do you want it to be aggressive? Just weave in and out of traffic a bit and tailgate and do all of those sorts of things and you could set it and there is a public backlash and Tesla got rid of it. [00:50:42] It is back now. How do you tell if a driver's being unsafe? When a car in its autonomous mode will do the same things that a human drivers shouldn't be doing? Or what if you're hauling contraband, Kentucky fried chicken? How is the driving going to be measured as impaired? Now I know in many states you have these breathalyzers that are court ordered, installed in cars. [00:51:13] Okay, so that makes sense. Somebody has been drunk driving many times. You don't want them drunk driving ever again, please. And thank you. But how about having that system in every car? Because it fails. It doesn't work sometimes. And how about the back door? Because that's essentially what we're talking about. [00:51:34] These cars are going to have a back door that allows someone named government authorities to access it whenever they want. Would they need a warrant to do it? Probably not. Even as hackers could access the back door and shut down your vehicle, think about lad having a kill switch that would kill all of the cars and trucks in the United States. [00:52:02] Right? There are so many potential problems here and they haven't been thought about. Oh, obviously it's government, but we're going to talk or we'd get back about the investment that are part of this multi-trillion dollar bill that you and your kids and grandkids are paying for. [00:52:23] We know they snuck a backdoor kill, switch into all cars manufactured after 2026 into this infrastructure belt. What else is in there? That's going to affect technology. That's what we're going to talk about right now. [00:52:38] We know about this now. After it passed, finally, people had a chance to read it because this provision on the kill switch was not debated in the house. [00:52:50] It was not debated in this. Just like they've been doing was so many other things for so long now they just bundle them all together in a bill. They gave it a cute little cuddly title, and then they go ahead and put whatever it is they want into it. These are these omnibus bills that they should have gotten rid of decades ago. [00:53:16] It is absolutely crazy to me. I just. Get it. Why are we putting up with this? So now the next step here is the investments that are being made. Now I'm going to type in right now, how successful are angel investments? Okay. So here we go. Bunch of ads for angel investing says you can have an average return of 1.1 X cap. [00:53:48] All right. And it goes on and on. This is a company called core associates. The success rate of angel investors. This is from Investopedia, the effective internal rate out return for a successful portfolio for angel investors is approximately 22%. Now, remember that over. So that's pretty amazing. Those numbers are much higher than what my friends said that they can expect absolutely much, much. [00:54:19] But I can tell you one thing for sure. Government quote, investments, end quote, rarely ever actually pay out because you've got political motivations in there. It's one thing to be a smart technology guy investing in technology. But how about those people in Congress? That aren't smart technology guys. [00:54:44] How about the doctors in Congress? Look at what Senator Paul ran. Paul has been saying he is a doctor and what he's been saying about the whole COVID thing and the way the government has handled it. We are really going down the wrong road to here because government. Taking the money from us at the point of a gun. [00:55:06] Try not paying your taxes and see what happens rarely ends up. Okay. So the us Congress passed November six. Biden's trillion. Plus infrastructure bill that includes 65 billion of investments in the power grid to accommodate rising, renewable energy capacity and demonstration clean tech project. So what's that one about? [00:55:32] That particular one is because our grid cannot handle solar and also the windmill power. The rates, we would need to have it, our grid set up so that you have a few centralized power stations, and then that power is distributed to the area. It's not set up for having tens of thousands of power stations. [00:55:56] So there you go, president Biden, put money into try and figure out well, Hey, how do we accomplish? How do we accommodate them? Noma, Germany has done. Is they've gone ahead and they're using a massive lake as a heat sink to get rid of the extra electricity that's being generated. When it comes to a regular power plant, you can turn it up. [00:56:21] You can turn it down the same. Thing's true for every type of power plant, whether it's powered by water or nuclear or cold, you can turn it up. But when it comes to wind and solar you can't turn it down. If it's a nice sunny day, you're not going to be able to turn that power down. It's still coming out. [00:56:40] You got to do something with it. You can cut it. Open the circuit. But the power companies that run the grid don't have that kind of fine grain control over the electricity that you're generating in your house or in your business. There's so many problems that start to open up here. So they're spending $65 billion. [00:57:02] That is a lot of money to figure this out. Okay. Personally, I'd rather see the private sector do it because they're going to have a better chance of coming up with something that's really going to work next part here. Okay. And by the way, Colin it or trillion dollar plus is being favorable because they played all kinds of gimmicks with this money. [00:57:25] Just, I just found out. In fact, I think it was a couple of weeks ago, June. Do you remember. President Biden moved all of the college loans from private sources into the white house. Do you remember that? So the white house is controlling all college loans at the time I thought, okay, it's just them paying back the unions, the teachers unions, right? [00:57:49] Because it also included provisions that you cannot have be bankrupt and get rid of your college. Th that's just mind boggling to me, but as it turns out what he was doing. Okay. All of that's true. But what he was actually doing is saying, oh, there's over a trillion dollars in college loans. So we're going to move them into the white house and call those assets to offset all of the money we're spending. [00:58:19] You see what we're talking about here? It's just not. Electric vehicles, clean energy, public transit are all part of this trillion dollar plus legislation. It's got $550 billion, a half, a trillion dollars to fund advancements in public transit, clean energy electric vehicles, roads, and bridges. Okay. It's always electric. [00:58:48] Really? The right winner here is electric. The beta max that should have won out over VHS. How about hydrogen? How about some other way? How about natural gas or LP gas? What we'll never know because some of that is not going to get funding. However, there is going to be some funding. For nuclear development? [00:59:12] No, I've talked a lot about this on the radio before, but the bottom line is nuclear is the only green energy that we can really get. And I can hear some people saying, oh, you're not sure not to know. Look at the current generations of nuclear power. Now, unfortunately, the regulations around nuclear power were written what, 70, 60 years ago, right? [00:59:38] When nuclear power was nasty stuff, it came out of the projects that we had in world war II to build nuclear bomb. Now these six generation nuclear power plants are as clean as can be. They only need to be refueled every 10 to 20 years, and they're small enough to fit into a small building smaller than your average home. [01:00:02] And you can put one of these in the neighborhood in a small town, and that will power the whole. Thing. Okay. So we're already getting 27%, according to president Biden of our power from these decades, old nuclear and hydro power facilities, they've got 21 and a half billion dollars in this for clean energy demonstrations and research hubs focused on next generation technologies, helping to get us to that net zero by 2050 that they're looking at. [01:00:35] To get to, so this will be interesting because there they've got 8 billion earmarked for hydrogen and carbon capture. Guess what's going to get more, yeah. Carbon capture, direct air capture, and we don't know what's going to happen with this. We're turning cow, carbon into stone, basically with some of these plans and experiments are underway. [01:00:56] So what happened. When we need that carbon again. But 8 billion is earmarked for hydrogen and carbon capture direct capture, 10 billion, two and a half billion earmarked for advanced nuclear. So I'm happy with that. Not that they're spending the money, not at all, but that they're actually putting it into something that might make a difference. [01:01:22] And hydrogen funding in this, by the way, it looks like it's a big win for oil and the whole oil industry stick around. [01:01:31] You've heard of this shortage of Silicon, of semiconductors CPU's et cetera. I don't know if you tried to buy a computer lately, order a computer, et cetera, but there is another part of the computer that's really hard to get. And that's what we're going to talk about. [01:01:56] CPU is the central processing unit in your computer. [01:02:01] And that nowadays might actually not just be on a chip by itself, back in the day. I'm thinking about the, some of the first microchips microcomputers I worked with such as the 65 0 2, that original. Apple chip that they use great little chip, by the way, he was just so clever how they got around some of the problems eight-bit problems or the day that computer with its CPU was a standalone CPU. [01:02:30] That in other words, the CPU only did CPU thinks, it went out and grabbed stuff from memory and then did the computing and then. Push the results back to memory. Just simplifying it there today. You look at a CPU like what apple is putting into their iPhones and the iPads, and particularly their desktops with , the M family, really whole family of chips. [01:02:56] It is no longer just a CPU on that chip. That chip has all of them. It has, of course, all of the memory controllers on it, the processors, it has low power processors. It has high power processors and it has GPU's that's what I want to talk about right now are the GPU's cause in the apple case, you. One of these M series computers and your stuck with what you buy, which is why you should always be buying the biggest, best just computer you can so that it will last you longer. [01:03:32] And I'm not talking about the fact of that study that said your average laptop, nowadays windows, laptop is going to last about seven months. I'm talking about the it's going to last, not because it breaks down or doesn't break down, but it's going to last because it has enough memory to handle future operating systems, et cetera. [01:03:53] Now we've got a problem today with TPMS. These are trusted platform modules and apple has actually been using something very similar to that for a long time. TPMS are in the window's case, very simplistic and don't actually provide very much security. They're basically going to help prevent someone putting some malicious code into the boot blocks on your computer. [01:04:23] So it's going to do some good, but it's not going to do a lot of good and windows. Now, Microsoft is requiring pretty much TPMS for windows either. Across the board. Now there's some ways around it sometimes depending on what you're doing, how you're doing it, but as a whole, yeah. You gotta have that TPM in order for things to work for you and even installed windows 11. [01:04:50] That's a good step, frankly that they made apple is many steps ahead of Microsoft in this case, mainly because they can make their own hardware. Microsoft can't. So when you buy a Microsoft computer inside, it's going to have what we're still calling a CPU, but it's much more than that. [01:05:11] Nowadays their CPU might be from Intel. It might be from AMD. Those are the two most likely Microsoft with their surface tablets does support similar chips to what apple is making. So you don't have to use an Intel type of chip in order to run windows anymore, depending on the hardware you're using. [01:05:32] But as part of these chips, you have to move graphics around. So the modern chips, like the Intel chips and AMD chips have some GPU capabilities built into. But in most cases, you're going to add a GPU card to your machine. So what is this GPU? What are we talking about here? A GPU is a really interesting piece of hardware because it is designed specifically to move. [01:06:05] Bits of information around very efficiently versus a CPU, which is designed to do mathematics on words of data. So in other words, 64 bits at a time. So if you're moving stuff around the memory buses on the CPU, et cetera, are optimized for maybe 128 bits of data all at once. So why would you want something that only handles. [01:06:33] A bit at a time. Of course it can do more than that, but we're keeping things simple. You want that because it's efficient at it. And if you think about the graphics processing unit, as the thing that handles the graphics, and you look at a screen, that screen is composed of most likely millions of dots, even on our little smartphone device. [01:06:55] Millions of dots. And so you've got to flip those dots around. Sometimes you need to move them as something most, or the most efficient way. For instance, to show a video is not to update that whole screen, because if you look at a screen with video, most of that screen, isn't moving nothing. Tap. What you want to update is just the parts that are moving and that's where compression comes into place. [01:07:21] And also where decompression comes into play. So all of this stuff that is part of moving things around on your screen, even if you're dragging a window around on your display, that is most optimally handled by the graphics processing unit, the. So Apple's putting their memory on chip. It's putting the GPU's, CPU's the high power, low power. [01:07:45] CPU's everything it can. And then all the memory management and stuff on one chip. And that gives some huge advantages because when you're talking about the speeds that we're using today the less space that electrons have to travel the faster it will be. I know you think about that for a minute, right? [01:08:03] You turn on a light switch and lights are on instantly. In reality, it takes a little bit because the electrons have to, first of all, get to the light and then they have to somehow excite something in the light in order to make the light. But electrons, distance traveled matters in. So why are we having such a huge shortage of GPU's while it has to do with their ability to mine, crypto current? [01:08:34] Now the best way to mine. Cryptocurrency is using specially made and designed hardware that is designed for that one particular cryptocurrency. So it makes sense to you. That's the best way to do. But in most cases you don't have that specially designed hardware. And in many cases, that hardware is only really viable for a few months, but people are still buying GPU specifically to mine, cryptocurrencies, by the way. [01:09:09] It's usually cheaper to buy cryptocurrencies and to mine them because the average electric bill in the United States makes it so that it is impossible to mine. These cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin effectively enough. So the electricity is cheaper than the pit coins worth. So think about that. If a Bitcoin is worth $50,000, Frank. [01:09:34] The electricity to mine. Another Bitcoin is more than likely going to cost you more than 50 grand and take a long time. So people are still buying GPU's these high-end GPU's, they're using them to build machines that have a bunch of these cards in them. And that is causing shortages for you and me who might want to make videos efficiently or who might want to do just. [01:10:01] Computing and buy a high-end computer. So it's good for you for the next five to 10 years. Oh, and Radian, who makes some of these high-end GPU's just came out with one that is specifically designed to be bad at mining cryptocurrency. So who knows? Maybe there is a little bit of hope here. You can visit me online. [01:10:23] I'd appreciate it. If you would, Craig peterson.com, you'll find all kinds of great information there. And if you sign up, I'm going to send you absolutely free. My three most popular, special reports, including. The one-on passwords, Craig peterson.com. Visit me online and stick around because we'll be right back. [01:10:49] There are a lot of programs claiming that they are secure. That's what we're going to talk about right now for secure communications. What about telegram? What about signal? What about WhatsApp and WhatsApp? You remember started 20, 21 with a real blackout. [01:11:05] Signal is probably the best software that you can use the best app. They've got a desktop version as well in order to keep your communications safe. And that's what you want to do. You don't want. People listening in. You don't want people spying on you. You just want to have a conversation. [01:11:27] And there's many things that you'd say in a private conversation that you would not say, if you were sitting here on the radio or standing on the top of a building with a thousand people below you, private conversations are meant to be. What signal is doing to play with fire is they are talking about trying to pull in cryptocurrency payments into part of signals, platinum. [01:11:55] It all started with something called mobile calling and signals CEO. And his name is mark C Marlin spike. We've talked to him about him a few times, but he was an advisor to the mobile coin, current cryptocurrency. And it's been built on this stellar blockchains designed to use a view, be used to make anonymous payments that are basically the same mistakes. [01:12:20] So it's designed to hide everything from ha from every one. That's the whole idea behind mobile coin. So the problem is if you start to integrate advertising systems into supposedly secure communication channels, what's going to have. If you start to take things like a cryptocurrency and put it into a secure communications channel, then what's going to happen. [01:12:48] You can bet that what's going to happen is governments are going to step in saying, Hey, wait a minute. Now you can have money flowing. I remember buying a car. And this was back in I think the early eighties and I went to the bank and I got a loan from the bank in order to buy the car. And they gave me eight, $1,000 bills. [01:13:11] Cause I was going down to the auction car auction and I was going to buy a car and I set myself an $8,000. So the idea was like buy the car and I come back, I pay them back the difference, and then they write the rest stop as alone, man. Weren't those the days, right? When a banker knew you, the banker made decisions on things like an $8,000 loan, I don't know. [01:13:37] What would that be worth in today's money? 10,020 probably goes to the $15,000 just based on my word. And I walked out of there with thousand dollar bills and. I also had $500 bills. And back then, you used them to pay bills and of course they're worth more today than they were then. Let me put it the other way is actually worth less, right? [01:14:03] Because of the, in crazy amounts of inflation that we've had. But the bottom line is you could have. Get thousand dollar bills and put eight of them in your pocket. So it doesn't look like you're walking around with a huge water cash that someone's going to steal from you. And then the government decided that, oh my gosh, that's terrible. [01:14:25] Oh no. Wow. Drug dealers might be using those thousand dollar bills. Oh, yeah, this is true. They might be using them and we all want to start off, stop the sale of illegal illicit drugs. That makes sense. But the war on drugs, we're not going to get into that has been an abject failure and it has resulted in things like the fiscal or w you're not even charged criminally or civilly, and they seize the money. [01:14:55] You. So they got rid of thousand dollar bills because of course they were only used by drug dealers and people like me, they got rid of $500 bills because of course it was still the drug dealers. And to me who were using them now, the biggest denomination that you can get is a hundred dollar bill. [01:15:14] Although the treasury is talking about making minting a 1000, excuse me. $1 trillion coin that they would use in order to make payments, right? Yeah. So that, that balances their budget. Cause yeah, they just printed a trillion dollar coin. Anyhow. The problem is that the government wants its fingers in every transaction, whether or not there are drug dealers involved and that is causing us nothing but headaches and heartaches, frankly, it's a real. [01:15:49] Problem. So when you get Marlin spike, tallying people, that signal is going to include a cryptocurrency called mobile calling that is designed to be absolutely private. That's when they government starts freaking. China already has a cryptocurrency. In fact, they've been trying to peddle their cryptocurrency for use by governments around the worl

durée : 00:58:40 - Toute une vie - par : Martine Abat - Lorsque Albert Kahn s’éteint en novembre 1940, la guerre est là. Ce qui l’a mobilisé toute sa vie, la recherche de la paix, est un échec. Le krach boursier de 1929, ainsi que les sommes englouties dans le mécénat, ont ruiné ce banquier philanthrope. - réalisation : Diphy Mariani

Après notre déjeuner de routiers, Anne-Laure et moi avons remonté l’avenue du Président Wilson en direction du Palais de Chaillot, autre bâtiment double construit en 1937. De nos jours, le Palais de Chaillot abrite une salle de spectacle, le musée de l’Homme, le musée de la Marine et la Cité du patrimoine et de l’architecture. C’est dans cette dernière que nous nous rendions. J’avais vu passer une info sur Internet à propos d’une exposition intitulée Paris de 1910 à 1937, promenades dans les collections Albert-Kahn.    La suite du texte est dans la NEWSLETTER, abonnez-vous!http://bit.ly/OneThingTranscripts

“Paris 1910-1937” Promenades dans les collections Albert-Kahnà la Cité de l'architecture & du patrimoine, Parisdu 16 septembre 2020 au 11 janvier 2021Interview de Magali Mélandri, directrice déléguée à la conservation au Musée départemental Albert-Kahn, de David-Sean Thomas, chargé d'exposition au Musée départemental Albert-Kahn, et de Jean-Marc Hofman, adjoint au conservateur de la galerie des moulages au Cité de l'architecture & du patrimoine, commissaires de l'exposition,par Anne-Frédérique Fer, à Paris, le 15 septembre 2020, durée 18'02, © FranceFineArt.Commissariat :Département des Hauts-de-Seine, Musée départemental Albert-KahnMagali Mélandri, directrice déléguée à la conservationDavid-Sean Thomas, chargé d'expositionCité de l'architecture & du patrimoineJean-Marc Hofman, adjoint au conservateur de la galerie des moulagesBanquier mécène et humaniste, Albert Kahn (1860-1940) a consacré sa vie et sa fortune à oeuvrer en faveur de la paix entre les peuples. À l'origine de nombreuses fondations philanthropiques, témoin et acteur majeur de son temps, il entreprend à partir de 1909 un vaste projet documentaire et visuel : les Archives de la Planète.Équipés des dernières inventions des frères Lumière, l'autochrome – premier procédé industriel de photographie en couleurs – et le cinématographe, une douzaine d'opérateurs sillonnent le monde. Ils ont pour mission « d'établir un dossier de l'humanité prise en pleine vie », à « l'heure critique » de changements aussi profonds qu'inéluctables, pour reprendre les mots mêmes du géographe Jean Brunhes (1869-1930), directeur scientifique du projet.Durant près de trois décennies, les photographes et cinéastes d'Albert Kahn arpentent aussi les rues de Paris, léguant près de 5 000 autochromes et 90 000 mètres de films. Ce fonds est l'un des plus importants sur la capitale pour le début du XXe siècle. Resté relativement confidentiel, sa présentation aujourd'hui n'en est que plus exceptionnelle.Cette exposition souligne les liens étroits de la collection avec les grandes questions urbaines qui ont accompagné la transformation de Paris entre 1910 et 1937. Entre Persistances et Mutations, ces images révèlent la double aspiration d'Albert Kahn et Jean Brunhes : promouvoir à la fois la grandeur d'une capitale intemporelle en cours de patrimonialisation – estimant son passé – et sa métamorphose en une métropole moderne, avide de progrès, irrémédiablement tournée vers l'avenir.Précédant la réouverture du Musée départemental Albert-Kahn en 2021, l'exposition invite à découvrir la richesse de ces images, la multiplicité de regards qu'elles inspirent et le fructueux dialogue qu'elles nouent entre passé et présent. Au prisme de l'autochrome, Paris se livre avec une indéniable étrangeté, comme si la ville avait été privée de sa population, écho vertigineux du confinement vécu le printemps dernier. Avec les films, dans lesquels bât le pouls de la capitale, ces images esquissent, pour le promeneur d'aujourd'hui, un fascinant et troublant portrait de Paris.

I met Vance Patrick at the farewell retirement party at the Detorit Historical Museum for Bob and Mary Ann Bury celebrating Bob's 16 years as CEO and Executive Director and their efforts as a team. I had read about the reopening of the The Belle Isle Aquarium and when Vance Patrick who was at the helm along with others of getting the Aquarium reopened said come let me show you around I did so a few days later. As we were talking I decided to turn on my recorder and I am glad I did. As always I record and no editing. It is what it is and I feel this was one very worthwhile conversation with Vance. I appreciate he took the time to educate me. They get up to 5,000-6,000 people over the weekend who come enjoy the free admission and easy to walk through Belle Isle Aquarium. It was a steady stream of all ages coming through as we walked around. Some history of the Belle Isle public aquarium located in Belle Isle Park in Detroit, Michigan. Designed by noted architects George D. Mason and Albert Kahn,[5] it opened on August 18, 1904, and was the oldest continually operating public aquarium in North America when it closed on April 3, 2005.[2] The aquarium reopened to the public on August 18, 2012, and is now run entirely by volunteers.[6] The 10,000-square-foot (930 m2) historic building features a single large gallery with an arched ceiling covered in green glass tile to evoke an underwater feeling.[1][7] The aquarium was operated by the Detroit Zoological Society prior to the 2005 closure. It is currently operated by the Belle Isle Conservancy. August 3, 2005, Detroit citizens voted to reopen the aquarium by an overwhelming margin (88% in favor, 12% opposed).[11] However, the vote was non-binding and the aquarium remained closed. In 2010, supporters of the aquarium were still trying to find donors to help defray the building's operating costs.[11] Although the building was closed between 2005 and 2012, goldfish and koi from an outside pond were housed in the aquarium during the winter.[11] Each year in February, the aquarium opened for a day for the annual "Shiver on the River,"[11] a fund raising event to promote public support of Belle Isle non-profit groups including the Friends of Belle Isle Aquarium.[2] On 14 August 2012, The Belle Isle Conservancy, a non-profit volunteer group established in 2011 from the merger of the Friends of Belle Isle Aquarium and other Belle Isle non-profit groups, announced the re-opening of the aquarium on a limited basis. The aquarium was reopened on 18 August 2012, the 108th anniversary of its opening.[citation needed] The aquarium is normally open Friday-Sunday However hours due to covid check their site. https://www.belleisleconservancy.org/belle-isle-aquarium

À 89 ans, après avoir patiemment documenté pendant plus de 60 ans, sur argentique, la beauté du monde et de l’Orient en particulier, le photographe français Roland Michaud s'est éteint cette semaine. Son nom, comme son œuvre distinguée en 2015 par le Prix international Albert Kahn, sont indissociables de ceux de son épouse Sabrina, tant ils formaient ensemble un duo inébranlable de grands passionnés d’images et d’Orient. On les appelait d’ailleurs toujours “les Michaud”.En quête de lumière et de sagesse, les Michaud ont su capter la noblesse de l'Afghanistan, les couleurs de l'Inde ou les brumes de la Chine éternelle. À l’heure d’Instagram et du tout numérique, on a du mal à mesurer l’impact des images des Michaud dans l’inconscient collectif. Pourtant, leur legs est immense : leur travail a inspiré des générations de photographes et de voyageurs à partir... Les Michaud étaient un couple mythique, magique aussi un peu, à tel point que tous ceux qui les ont rencontrés se disaient avoir eu de la chance.Nous avons eu cette chance en 2017 et proposons de rendre hommage à Roland en vous faisant réécouter sa parole humble et sage sur la vie, le voyage et la photographie.

The roommates profile Detroiters that display that Mamba Mentality of hard work and focus, including Joe Louis, Albert Kahn, and a couple current residents. As always, the weekend is recapped, there are shout outs, we go through more Top 100 bars, and preview a couple events coming up.

On today's episode, we hit the vault to re-tell a story originally aired in May.  We’re taking a look at a company that’s making high-end leather goods right here in the city of Detroit, putting Detroiters and veterans to work. We’re talking about Pingree Detroit, based just about a block away from the well-known Shinola. Pingree is a worker-owned company formed as an L3C — a special type of company that puts both the bottom line and the social mission of the company first. And when there are profits, 77 cents of every dollar is shared with the workers. Pingree just made their 100th pair of Mayor sneakers. Why Mayor? Because the company is named after shoemaker and former Detroit mayor and Michigan governor Hazen S. Pingree. Considered Detroit’s best mayor, he has a fascinating back story. But back to the present day. The company is based out of an old Albert Kahn bank building, and that’s where we met Pingree Detroit founder Jarret Schlaff. Pingree founder Jarret Schlaff and our Sven Gustafson toured the facility and talked about the project, the sacrifices made to create a worker-first company, the ups and downs of business and the optimistic view Jarret has for the future. The company was founded after meeting jobless veterans in the city.

This time on the Cold Star Project we're looking at Albert Kahn. Kahn’s firm pioneered standardization and modular systems, and had the biggest impact on industrial architecture in the 20th Century--yet is almost completely unknown both in the USA and Russia despite having done major projects in both countries. Kahn's USP was designing buildings on time & under budget, with good quality of construction. The "Why" of hiring his firm was not about hiring the artist (as with contemporary Frank Lloyd Wright) but rather the "corporate guarantee" Kahn's leadership brought to the table. The USSR's transition from an agrarian to industrial economy was certainly sparked by the teaching and involvement of Kahn's firm as the Soviets hired them to teach their engineers and build their first giant mass production factories.

Coleman A. Young and George Crockett are a few of the Detroiters that show up in "A Good American Family" by David Maraniss, a chronicle of Maraniss' father's being swept up in the "Red Scare" of the 1950s. Motherhood's sometimes not-so-happy endings are the subject of the fiction collection "Look How Happy I'm Making You" by Michigander Polly Rosenwaike. Albert Kahn contributed many great buildings to Detroit, but was he also the father of early 20th Century Modernist architecture? His legacy and the place of gargoyles in city's skyline are explored in many great new books on Detroit buildings.

In the search for reclaiming masterpieces, creating streaming services that put every film at our fingertips, and investigating narratives that simply continue variations of the canon, what have we missed? What happens when we put our foot on the breaks and reconsider not just the what's of cinema and media history but the hows? In her extraordinary body of research, Professor Katherine Groo has been looking toward the objects that film history often ignores, simply because it seems there is nothing to do with them. The result in her new book, Bad Film Histories, considers some methods and ideas of how to approach a particular set of objects: early ethnographic film. From there, Peter and Katherine look into her much discussed op-ed for the Washington Post on the role of streaming services like FilmStruck and end by examining not a film but an archive: a set of films and glass plates collected to create an archive of the world by Albert Kahn. Needless to say, it is the odds and ends there that remain more fascinating than considering the body of work itself. 0:00–4:37 Opening5:23–58:48 Deep Focus — Katherine Groo 1:00:09–1:04:36 Sponsorship Section1:05:46–1:25:08 Double Exposure — Archives de la Planète1:25:13–1:26:52 Close

Podcast: AN EXTRAORDINARY CHAPTER IN MODERN ARCHITECTURE HISTORY. Part 2 of interview with Alan Hess, author of _Michigan Modern: Design that Shaped America_. This book is listed for purchase at MidCenturyBooks.Net Alan Hess: “She saw what was in Michigan, she saw all of this amazing furniture design, Herman Miller, Florence Knoll, she saw the effect of these educational institutions, like the University of Michigan, and Cranbrook, she saw what automotive designers were designing in Detroit, that was spread worldwide, and architects, whether they were factory architects, like Albert Kahn, or skyscraper architects or shopping center architects.”

"À côté des films antimilitaristes déclarés - qui utilisèrent bien souvent les mêmes formes spectaculaires que le film de guerre à des fins réalistes (entre autres Full Metal Jacket de Stanley Kubrick, 1987 ; Apocalypse Now de Francis Ford Coppola, 1976 ; La Ligne rouge de Terence Malick, 1999) ou encore parodiques (Starship Troopers de Paul Verhoeven, 1997) -, le cinéma a produit des visions documentaires de résistance à la guerre à travers des témoignages d’insoumis ou encore des vues de manifestations pacifistes. Des films témoignant du « pacifisme par le droit » tel que revendiqué et produit par Albert Kahn jusqu’aux portraits des désobéissants civils réalisés par Bernard Baissat, les images proposées lors de cette séance mettent en évidence penseurs du pacifisme et pratiques du refus de la violence."
