THE PRC PLAN WAS PIRACY FROM THE FIRST OPPPORTUNITY:  1/4: Wireless Wars: China's Dangerous Domination of 5G and How We're Fighting Back by  Jonathan Pelson  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Wars-Dangerous-Domination-Fighting/dp/1953295614/ref=sr_1_1?crid=DJU62K5HQ6WR&keywords=wireless+wars&qid=1662137784&s=books&sprefix=wireless+wars%2Cstripbooks%2C65&sr=1-1 In Wireless Wars: China's Dangerous Domination of 5G and How We're Fighting Back, author Jon Pelson explains how America invented cellular technology, taught China how to make the gear, and then handed them the market. Pelson shares never-before-told stories from the executives and scientists who built the industry and describes how China undercut and destroyed competing equipment makers, freeing themselves to export their nation's network gear—and their surveillance state. He also reveals China's successful program to purchase the support of the world's leading political, business, and military figures in their effort to control rival nations' networks. What's more, Pelson draws on his lifelong experience in the telecommunications industry and remarkable access to the sector's leaders to reveal how innovative companies can take on the Chinese threat and work with counterintelligence and cybersecurity experts to prevent China from closing the trap. He offers unparalleled insights into how 5G impacts businesses, national security and you. Finally, Wireless Wars proposes how America can use its own unique superpower to retake the lead from China.  This book is about more than just 5G wireless services, which enable self-driving cars, advanced telemedicine, and transformational industrial capabilities. It's about the dangers of placing our most sensitive information into the hands of foreign companies who answer to the Chinese Communist Party. And it's about the technology giant that China is using to project its power around the world; Huawei, a global super-company that has surged from a local vendor to a $120 billion-a-year behemoth in just a few yearsE

First in a double podcast about the Golden Age of Piracy, with historian Marcus Rediker. The legendary pirates of this era weren't just thieves—they were daring rebels challenging the very systems of power and authority of their time. Fighting every colonial empire, and creating their own ways of living free from authority, pirates became symbols of liberty and resistance to working-class and poor people everywhere.  Our podcast is brought to you by our patreon supporters.

“A lot of people in our communities don't view them as pirates. I think they are defenders of the sea.”In 2011, Somali piracy peaked. Crews were attacked at gunpoint and many held as hostages for months. The World Bank says there were 243 incidents that year. After a crackdown involving international navies, attacks plummeted to almost zero.But since last year there's been an uptick in incidents. Houthi attacks on shipping using the Suez Canal - in support of the Palestinians in Gaza – drew global attention, and firepower, away from the Somali coastline. And the root causes of the problem – poverty and lack of infrastructure for local fishing communities, and illegal fishing by foreign trawlers – were never addressed.So could piracy return to the levels of 15 years ago?Alan @kasujja speaks with a local fisherman from the affected town of Eyl, and to fisheries expert Abdirahman Mohamed.

Did you know Hong Kong used to be a hub for pirates? That factoid has long been part of the popular history for Hong Kong—and for Southern China broadly. For centuries, Chinese pirates raided merchants and coastal communities up and down the Chinese coast, taking advantage of weak imperial rule and safe havens like what's now present-day Vietnam. Robert Antony tells the story of pirates like Zheng Yi Sao in his recent book Outlaws of the Sea: Maritime Piracy in Modern China (Hong Kong UP, 2024) Before retiring in 2019, Robert Antony was distinguished professor at Guangzhou University and recently visiting scholar at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton. His recent books include Unruly People: Crime, Community, and State in Late Imperial South China (HKU Press: 2016), The Golden Age of Piracy in China, 1520-1810: A Short History with Documents (Rowman & Littlefield: 2022), and Rats, Cats, Rogues, and Heroes: Glimpses of China's Hidden Past (Rowman & Littlefield: 2023), also covered by the New Books Network.

Send us a textEver wondered if you could survive being stranded alone on the red planet? Our latest deep dive examines The Martian, where astronaut Mark Watney must use ingenuity and science to stay alive on Mars after being accidentally left behind by his crew.We tackle the film's survival realism - from the questionable Martian dust storm that launches the plot to the scientifically sound (though explosive) water-making chemistry that keeps Watney alive. Did you know Mars' atmosphere is only 1% as dense as Earth's, making those dramatic windstorms physically impossible? Or that Watney's potato-growing strategy using human waste actually makes scientific sense?The episode sparks fascinating discussions about survival psychology and problem-solving. As Watney says, "You're in outer space, you are going to die, you have to solve every problem, one at a time, and when you solve enough problems you get to come back home." This methodical approach translates to any survival situation - focus on immediate challenges rather than becoming overwhelmed by your circumstances.We also debate which would be worse: being stranded in space or lost at sea. Space offers a quick death but absolute isolation, while the ocean presents the terror of marine predators, storms, and a slower demise. Which would you choose? The conversation highlights how different survival scenarios require unique mental frameworks and coping mechanisms.Whether you're a science fiction fan, a survival enthusiast, or just curious about what it takes to overcome impossible odds, this episode offers both entertainment and practical insights. Join us as we break down what it really takes to survive when you're the only human on an entire planet. Subscribe now and let us know in the comments: what movie should we analyze next?

Robert Antony tells the story of pirates like Zheng Yi Sao in his recent book Outlaws of the Sea: Maritime Piracy in Modern China (Hong Kong UP, 2024) Before retiring in 2019, Robert Antony was distinguished professor at Guangzhou University and recently visiting scholar at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton. His recent books include Unruly People: Crime, Community, and State in Late Imperial South China (HKU Press: 2016), The Golden Age of Piracy in China, 1520-1810: A Short History with Documents (Rowman & Littlefield: 2022), and Rats, Cats, Rogues, and Heroes: Glimpses of China's Hidden Past (Rowman & Littlefield: 2023), also covered by the New Books Network.

Why does Hollywood get hacking wrong in so many movies and TV series?

Meta is facing significant scrutiny following revelations that it allegedly used pirated books to train its AI model, Llama 3. An investigation by The Atlantic uncovered that Meta employees prioritized acquiring these books, deeming them more crucial than web data. The company reportedly accessed a vast library of over 7.5 million books through LibraryGenesis, a known source of illegal distribution. This situation raises profound ethical concerns regarding the future of knowledge sharing and the legality of generative AI development, as enterprises may hesitate to trust AI models lacking a clear intellectual property chain of custody.In the realm of technology investments, global spending on data centers surged by 51% last year, reaching $455 billion, with expectations of a further 30% growth this year. The majority of this capital expenditure is concentrated among the top 10 hyperscalers, such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft, and Google Cloud, who are heavily investing to meet the rising demand for AI capabilities. However, the U.S. PC market is projected to see only modest growth due to ongoing tariff concerns, despite a notable increase in shipments driven by the commercial sector's demand for Windows 10 refresh cycles.CoreWeave, a cloud AI startup backed by NVIDIA, is preparing for an IPO aiming to raise up to $2.7 billion, but it faces challenges as Microsoft has opted not to exercise a significant option to purchase additional data center capacity. This decision reflects a shift in how tech companies are managing their AI budgets. Analysts have revised CoreWeave's revenue growth expectations downward, indicating a potential cash burn increase, which raises questions about the sustainability of its rapid growth and reliance on a single major customer.The podcast also highlights the implications of the current job market, which is increasingly reliant on government, healthcare, and education sectors, raising concerns about future labor market stability. As hiring in these sectors is expected to slow, the overall economic growth may be hindered, particularly for firms offering productivity-enhancing solutions. The convergence of these trends—ethical concerns in AI development, fluctuating tech investments, and a stagnant job market—paints a complex picture of the current business landscape. Three things to know today 00:00 Clouds Rise, Macs Fly, and the Job Market Sighs: A Look at the State of Play06:45 Meta's Alleged Book Piracy Raises IP Risks Across the Generative AI Ecosystem09:01 CoreWeave's IPO Balances Sky-High Growth and Soaring Costs as Microsoft Rethinks AI Spend  Supported by:  https://www.huntress.com/mspradio/https://timezest.com/mspradio/  Event: : https://www.nerdiocon.com/ All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

In the early modern period, both legal and illegal maritime predation was a common occurrence, but the expansion of European maritime empires exacerbated existing and created new problems of piracy across the globe. The Problem of Piracy in the Early Modern World (Amsterdam UP, 2024) addresses these early modern problems in three sections: first, states' attempts to exercise jurisdiction over seafarers and their actions; second, the multiple predatory marine practices considered 'piracy'; and finally, the many representations made about piracy by states or the seafarers themselves.  Across nine chapters covering regions including southeast Asia, the Atlantic archipelago, the North African states, and the Caribbean Sea, the complexities of defining and criminalizing maritime predation is explored, raising questions surrounding subjecthood, interpolity law, and the impacts of colonization on the legal and social construction of ocean, port, and coastal spaces. Seeking the meanings and motivations behind piracy, this book reveals that while European states attempted to fashion piracy into a global and homogenous phenomenon, it was largely a local and often idiosyncratic issue.

Ching Shih, born as Shi Yang, was quite possibly the most powerful pirate of all time. While famous UK pirates like Blackbeard, Black Bart, Calico Jack, Sir Francis Drake, or Captain Kidd get much more name recognition, none of them ever commanded a confederation of pirates up to 80,000 men strong, with around 2,000 ships.

In April 1769 a small British vessel sailing along the southern coast of Hispaniola discovered a shipwreck near the current border of Haiti and the Dominican Republic. An investigation found no survivors aboard. But they also found a log which identified that ship as the Black Prince. And there the mystery might have ended. But over the next eight years, “ship's crew members surfaced in unexpected places and recounted its demise.” That demise is part of the story in James H. Sweet's Mutiny on the Black Prince: Slavery, Piracy, and the Limits of Liberty in the Revolutionary Atlantic World. But so too is how the Black Prince came to be wrecked on the Hispaniolan reef; how its crew escaped; and how the owners of the ship, and the interest they represented, took their own revenge. Above all it is a story of how Atlantic slavery was linked not only to commerce, but nearly every other corner of the 18th century world. James H. Sweet is the Vilas-Jartz Distinguished Professor of History at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and a past president of the American Historical Association. He has previously been the prize-winning author of Recreating Africa: Culture, Kinship, and Religion in the African-Portuguese World, 1441-1770 and Domingos Álvares, African Healing, and the Intellectual History of the Atlantic World.   

ANOTHER law firm has been caught using AI to write briefs with fake cases cited. Micorsoft trial shows that more people think AI is lame once they learn how it works. Meta says piracy is legal. Amazon kills their Android app store. Apple does pull end to end encryption in the UK, like we said they would. And a new iPhone is out that basically confirms Apple hates poor people.
