In one of the rooms I’m in on live Wire, we’ve been talkinbg about the news. While this may be a little dated, I was looking for something Specific on one of our local news sites. On there, it had a headline talking about Russia causing problems with the research in to the Corona Virus. The first article Russian government hackers targeting coronavirus vaccine research, UK, US and Canada warn was written on July 16, 2020. I read this article three days later. KNX, my local news site, posted an article today entitled US Officials Say Russia Spreading Misinformation on Coronavirus Pandemic and it was posted today.
While outside influences are messing with research, news sources need to be correct in their reporting. We should not see information a week later after some tech related site breaks the news first.
I was looking for a specific story about something I had heard on the scanner that they don’t have. Its nice that they cover the news, they are our only news source. Why are they publishing this today?
The cyberscoop article talks about APT29. They are a group that creates tools that are persistant in nature and hard to deal with.
There is a lot of linking here, but i suggest that you take a look at the Cyberscoop article, and read KNX at your leisure. Its time we get a vaccine and the only way we can do that is if each nation do their own research in to what is causing this virus to spread and what type of combination of things can solve it. Metalling in research is not going to get the country any closer to solving this problem.
