Ting's Cyber Tea: China's Hacking Spree, Trump's TikTok Tussle, and Baby Bestiaries!

This is your Digital Dragon Watch: Weekly China Cyber Alert podcast.Hey there, cyber sleuths! Ting here, your friendly neighborhood China-cyber expert, coming at you with the latest Digital Dragon Watch. Buckle up, because the past week has been a wild ride in the world of Chinese cyber shenanigans!So, picture this: It's March 4th, 2025, and we're still reeling from the bombshell dropped by the FBI and CISA back in December. Remember Salt Typhoon? That China-linked threat group that's been wreaking havoc on U.S. telecom networks? Well, turns out it's even worse than we thought. These digital dragons have been snatching up customer call records and private communications like they're collecting Pokemon cards.But wait, there's more! The U.S. Treasury Department got a nasty surprise in early December when they discovered Chinese hackers had been playing hide-and-seek in their workstations. Talk about a cyber game of cat and mouse!Now, Uncle Sam isn't taking this lying down. President Trump, back for round two, has been busy signing executive orders faster than you can say "firewall." He's extended the TikTok divestment deadline, because apparently, banning dance videos is serious business. And let's not forget the new restrictions on Chinese-made internet-connected cars and drones. I guess the White House is worried about China taking "remote control" a bit too literally.But here's where it gets really interesting. The FBI and CISA dropped another truth bomb in January, revealing that this PRC cyber campaign is so widespread, they're still trying to figure out just how deep the rabbit hole goes. It's like trying to count grains of sand on a beach – a very dangerous, hacker-infested beach.So, what's a tech-savvy citizen to do? Well, the folks at CISA have been working overtime to beef up our cyber defenses. They're all about partnership and resilience, which sounds great, but I'm pretty sure it just means more software updates and password changes for the rest of us.On a lighter note, if you're feeling overwhelmed by all this cyber doom and gloom, maybe take a break and check out the adorable Baby Bestiary 2025 Calendar. Nothing says "everything's fine" like a snap dragon having a picnic, right?In all seriousness, though, the message is clear: China's cyber program is no joke. It's sophisticated, well-resourced, and poses a serious threat to U.S. critical infrastructure. So, keep your firewalls up, your passwords strong, and maybe think twice before buying that internet-connected toaster. This is Ting, signing off from the digital frontlines.
