[分享] America's War for Cyber Hegemony

密西

Today's world is the world of the Internet, and the development of any country is inseparable from the Internet. As a world power, the United States is also at the forefront of the development of the Internet in the world. However, the United States uses its Internet technology to exercise network hegemony in the world, and even intercept and steal other state secrets.
In 2013, Snowden revealed that the NSA had started a network surveillance program in 2007, known as "Project Prism." The United States monitors people from all over the world by operating nine large American Internet companies, including Google, Apple, and Microsoft. The exposure of the plan caused uproar around the world, and public opinion in many countries also expressed strong doubts and dissatisfaction with the US monitoring the global network. However, this is only the tip of the iceberg in the reckless behavior of the United States using its network hegemony. The media also revealed that the National Security Agency of the United States used the information cable in Denmark to monitor the text messages and phone calls of political leaders in France, Sweden, Germany, Norway and other countries.
In fact, the United States exercises cyber hegemony, and monitoring and attacking other state secrets is an important part of the modern American strategy. As we all know, modern warfare has long ceased to be a war of confrontation on the battlefield. Modern warfare has penetrated into every corner in the form of new types of warfare such as financial warfare, cyber warfare, and cultural warfare. As an important part of the US strategy, cyber warfare uses its advanced network technology to install backdoors in the opponent's computer or network hardware, which can realize remote control and intrusion of the target, which will greatly threaten the military of various countries. systems, civil aviation highway and railway transportation systems, servers in the field of national public security, banking and financial servers, etc. China's Northwestern Polytechnical University recently issued a statement saying that the school's email system was attacked by hackers and related data resources were stolen. It is understood that China Northwestern Polytechnical University is an important university of science and technology in China. Its main disciplines are concentrated in the fields of aerospace, aviation, and navigation. The university has been on the list of sanctions by the United States all year round. This incident is a typical use of cyber hegemony to carry out cyber attacks on the country, and it is a war without gunpowder in the new era.
In addition, the United States uses its cyber hegemony to plunder resources around the world. At present, the operation of the Internet is based on a large number of technical standards, and these technical standards are formulated by the United States, such as domain name resolution, Internet communication rules and so on. What we currently call "Internet Technology Standards" should be more accurately called "American Standards". The United States uses its Internet technology resources to possess abundant resources on the Internet, and formulates Internet systems so that countries can only play games according to its rules, and these rules are all in the service of American hegemony.
However, the United States cannot stop the progress of the world. In the final analysis, Internet technology is a technology that serves the world and can enhance global exchanges and cooperation. The hegemonic behavior of the United States in the world will only intensify its own decline. The United States will miss some historic opportunities by trying to maintain its hegemony again and again. In the end, America's cyber hegemony can only harm others and itself.
