Hope you've enjoyed the video! Project Gunman is one piece of history we know of that shaped the US cyber operations into what they are today. Most of these operations are classified. Do you think the government should be more transparent about its hacking efforts?
Not with the general public. But the chain of oversight should be more prevalent. That helps with assuring the public that there are check and balances in place. That those measure are held to account.
I’m curious how many in these agencies, upon discovering they were compromised, were like “Holy F***” angry. And what percent of them were like “Holy F*** why didn’t we think of that?”.
I'd guess that a lot of them were the latter. After eating their own propaganda for years they'd be utterly gobsmacked that those backwards commies could engineer microelectronics while they were digging tunnels under the castle walls like it's the medieval period. Always assume your enemy has you out numbered, out gunned, and out classed in every intellectual field, even if they are backwards commies.
Oh, and on a historical note, that's where "undermined" comes from. You dig under the castle walls, set fire to your wooden supports, and wait for the walls to collapse under their own weight.
It's quite clever to listen to the normal activity of the typewriter instead of picking up a signal from the actual electronics. People weren't stupid over there. And people still aren't stupid.
Love the stories you guys are doing! Like the news bytes these things are short enough to want to watch and packed with enough info to make the brevity a pro instead of a con! Great job!
Very well made video. The editing is on point and the background music isn’t obnoxiously loud. Keep it up and you’ll blow up! Also, this format is way better than the AI stuff.
Loved this video-super entertaining! It’s such a fun way to learn about the key historical events that shaped the evolution of cyber warfare and brought us to where we are today.
It's amazing how far things have come, and each day we think we're at the peak of the future, the inspiration of our forefathers behind us. (and Mothers)
The video was truly impressive! Can you kindly share the name of the brilliant team behind the stunning production, graphics, and video? Your response will be highly appreciated!
This was killer. New to the channel. Regarding artificial intelligence, and narration. The issue I find is the sterility in the voice. Something in the way that it is recorded. Just causes me to lose interest really quickly. It’s missing a warmth that the human voice has. It’s not a digital replication issue, it’s the way our ears translate, the human voice. Regardless of whether is recorded digitally, and then brought to our speakers digitally. The fact that it was originally a human voice makes a huge difference.
Very faschinating - do you know anything about, how the Soviets powered these devices ? I have had heard stories about them using a sort of RFID technology to power these spy devices ?
damnn fascinating indeed, thankfully we can just be average humans who dont have to care about these kind of issues and just pay taxes and watch youtube videos all day.

So the equipments were bugged by human.Who are they ? Must be moles insider or outsider penetrated the embassy. Word of wisdom are...never be complacent and underestimate your enemies...
Yes this was definitely a notable cyber incident but it was in no way the beginning of anything. I think that you over dramatized that part of your narrative.
Spent the first 20 seconds of the video wondering if the narrator is an Ai or not. Idk yet still cuz I'm only 20 secs in but I'll have an answer at some point
4:37. That face. Never seen an Ai do that. His voice has more emotions than an ai. And I also saw his hands (those could be edited in tho)... Also if you ever see a selfie and wonder if it's Ai, look at the ears. They always look wrong. His ears are human. Ai can't do ears or fingers, and sometimes shadows. It does hair pretty well.

No..
don't stop your AI news please
I love it ❤️

100% were both
I had heard about the Soviets bugging IBM Selectrics but didn’t know how we found out. Thanks for the story.
It's quite clever to listen to the normal activity of the typewriter instead of picking up a signal from the actual electronics. People weren't stupid over there. And people still aren't stupid.
I mean, some people are stupid. (It's me, I'm stupid.)
3❤3😂3
Forget a typewriter. Modern tech can listen to a computer keyboard and make out what you're typing by the sounds of the keys.
Tempest standards
I like keeping up with tech news, but these types of videos you do are by far my favorite! Truly fascinating and well presented.
Great content!
That was fantastic, the whole piece, the commentator everything.
Bro keep it up,stop the AI thing its boring stay likee this :)
Disagree
@@markmendoza1935 Bruh,you love the freaking AI talking about news,or A real W guy talking/making a video like this Choose one
I'd say for the daily cyber news the AI is fine but for documentaries it should be a normal human doing it
@@strawlhatnomi No don't stop your AI news please
agree
Love the stories you guys are doing! Like the news bytes these things are short enough to want to watch and packed with enough info to make the brevity a pro instead of a con! Great job!
Great story! Definitely make more explainer videos like this. Love the history angle and love the on-screen Talent. The guy's great.
That's got to be a massive relief! It's so easy to get into trouble but incredibly hard and expensive to get out of it.
I'm glad you're free man.

This is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING CONTENT!
I'd absolutely like seeing more or this on yt
Fascinating explainer! Thankyou for making this! I'm subscribed.
This is awesome. I had somehow never read about the bugged teletype machines. Would love to see more stuff like this
commenting to get more videos from this awesome channel. keep up the great work guys God bless you and your families
You have just gained a new subscriber😊
“The Godfather of American Cyberwar” is a badass nickname
This was awesome! Would be great to have more videos like it :)

Freaking fascinating. Keep it up!
Great video, thanks!
Awesome video.
@CN - I love all this cloak and dagger stuff.
Amazing stuff!🔥
Great contents, great delivery
"Why The US Decided to Become a Hacking Superpower" bro we literally invented the internet lol of course we're gonna be hacking shit
Facts 😂
Great show!!
We need a movie of this.
Brilliant video, Thanks
These stories are awesome.
Great video, keep it up!
I believe Mossman of Great Scott Gadgets determined through testing that the Microwaves were for the retro-reflectors.
Great video. Super cool.

I never knew about this stuff. Sub'd to the channel
great topic "hacking before nowaday PC" with the typewriter that have a kheylogger
Plz make more like this
2:12 Isn't that Havana syndrome? Or am I getting something mixed up here
7:45 Whoa. That's something to design
Awesome vid!
Great research
Cool stuff.
Thanks ❤
Very faschinating - do you know anything about, how the Soviets powered these devices ? I have had heard stories about them using a sort of RFID technology to power these spy devices ?
More vids and please make them longer
Fascinating, yes keep it up.
Excellent episode first timer " u gotbme for now 😂
The regrettable thing about this matter is that we have to hurt each other to get our own interests.
Fascinating!
You guys should do a shadowbroker video!
🤫🤫🤫
This was excellent
To answer to the title just like that from the get go: Because it works? And because they can?
Love this videos
damnn fascinating indeed, thankfully we can just be average humans who dont have to care about these kind of issues and just pay taxes and watch youtube videos all day.
That was cool. I'd like to see more
10/10 video the lore goes deep
commeting for content bump~!
This is so much better than ai
The History is interesting.
Don’t forget operation glowing symphony.
Parabéns pelo maravilhoso conteúdo....

good channel
this is how they tell me
how the world is going to end
When you are evil you always have to be watching over your back!!! Sad indeed! It would be so much easier if you would just stop being bad!!!
You get a thumbs up just for your ad....😁
I love this channel
The us embassy should have been built by US trusted contractors or Agents, otherwise how the bugs got there in the first place?
I love these videos
4:37 ❤🎉
Thank you UA-cam algorithm ❤
So the equipments were bugged by human.Who are they ?
Must be moles insider or outsider penetrated the embassy.
Word of wisdom are...never be complacent and underestimate your enemies...
lol thanks for speaking we need more of you. lol
Go for it USA
Damn that was clever
yup
Interesting.
lol digging tunnels, seems primitive for sure. What would I know though.
They were doing sht like this in the 80s. Imagine what the governments do with the technology today
They been doing this longer than the 80s ,it's been in the military for longer than that !
The us you have to be kidding me
People don't call it hacking you got Google and you got window there are a couple of operating systems not know popular
Magnetometors. Just doesn't seem that impressive. Even 200 years ago or whatever.
did they found nukes in Iraq ?
😂😂
9:50 Jesus Christ. No wonder the Cold War lasted so God damn long. "cOmPuTeRs?? tHeY'Re nOt iMpOrTaANt tHeY'Re jUsT A pAsSiNg fAd!!1!"
Is it safe to like the video, though ;)
LMAO Well Played😅

Spent the first 20 seconds of the video wondering if the narrator is an Ai or not. Idk yet still cuz I'm only 20 secs in but I'll have an answer at some point
Okay he shows his face at 0:42(but only for a split second so I'm still not sure cuz it could be a deepfake
Alright... 1:02 he shows his face for a bit longer. I'm just gonna trust that he's real, but it's still reluctantly.
4:37. That face. Never seen an Ai do that. His voice has more emotions than an ai. And I also saw his hands (those could be edited in tho)... Also if you ever see a selfie and wonder if it's Ai, look at the ears. They always look wrong. His ears are human. Ai can't do ears or fingers, and sometimes shadows. It does hair pretty well.
Just stay out of my house. Thanks
Great content! please stop using the AI this is so much more fun to watch
Do unto others before they do to you
In the world context, pragmatism.
The NSA is theat quiet coworker wjo.does all.the work... while the FBI.takes all.the credit.
God Save The King
Sorry I’m not going to watch this video, the title upset me. The US didn’t decide nothing, we invented hacking
