I couldn&#8217;t even power on my smart TV. They issued updates to my computer and phone to secure my network. I had this problem a while ago when I accidentally gave the Chinese website Alibaba access to my network. I eventually blocked them, but it may have been too late. I don&#8217;t really know what&#8217;s going on other than they are trying to wipe out what little I have in my bank account. Chinese companies are required to participate in and comply with the state&#8217;s cybercrime and espionage efforts. Yesterday I had to open a new bank account. So they want to gain access to my network again, I guess. China has an army of professional hackers unlike anything we have, and now we are tapping into the ingenuity of our private sector in order to combat this growing epidemic. Unleashing our big tech companies to combat cybercrime is long overdue. Americans should welcome these developments as the federal government and the private sector join hands to protect us from those who would destroy us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is all happening just a day after the Trump Administration gave companies the green light to conduct offensive cyber-operations&#8211;something unheard of until now. We are entering a dangerous new phase in the cyberwar involving Russia and China, where cyber gangs operate with impunity under state cover. I&#8217;m an outspoken critic of China, so I should expect this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can thank the Trump administration, Google, Microsoft, Intel, and whoever else is involved for going after cybercriminals as they seek to rob everyday Americans blind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I know I&#8217;m certainly thankful for them,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Trump Vows to Crack Down on Cybercrime and Online Scams, Warns of Growing Cyber Threat | AC1N\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LsXFwsfBCwo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2026\/08\/13\/us\/politics\/trump-private-companies-hacking-cybercriminals.htm\">https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2026\/08\/13\/us\/politics\/trump-private-companies-hacking-cybercriminals.htm<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chinese hackers have been working overtime to hack into my wireless network, so Google and Intel blocked my wifi network, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7349,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7348","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/vanjordan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/watermarked_img_17655440595406382204.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vanjordan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7348","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vanjordan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vanjordan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vanjordan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vanjordan.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7348"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/vanjordan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7348\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7367,"href":"https:\/\/vanjordan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7348\/revisions\/7367"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vanjordan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/7349"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vanjordan.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7348"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vanjordan.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7348"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vanjordan.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7348"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
