You must understand that the CCP has conducted a continuing assault on the USA that is an act of WAR. They are at War while we are not at War. This has been underway from the very beginning and no particular secret either.
This was unsurprising and also easily detected as well. I certainly detected it many times all by myself simply because I was alert to the likelihood. It is completely unreasonable to believe that Mil Intel was asleep at all..
All that means is that they were fed and known. So what is this about Google? Has it been truly compromised? I would expect a carve out to handle such a risk and to actually manage it.
Google will need to be resolved obviously.
Trump to ‘Take a Look’ at Google After Accusations of Treason With China

President Donald Trump said his administration will look into allegations by billionaire investor Peter Thiel that Google is collaborating with the Chinese Communist Party.
“[Thiel is] a great and brilliant guy who knows this subject better than anyone!” Trump wrote in a July 16 Twitter post.
“The Trump Administration will take a look!” the president added, citing a Fox & Friends segment about Thiel’s comments.
In March, Trump wrote on Twitter that Google was “helping China and their military, but not the U.S. Terrible!”
A White House spokesperson declined to comment on Trump’s tweet, CNBC reported.
Thiel, a high-profile investor who took down the Gawker website and
sits on the board of Facebook, said in a speech at the National
Conservatism Conference in Washington on July 14 that investigators
should ask three questions of Google executives.
“Number one, how many foreign intelligence agencies have infiltrated
your Manhattan Project for AI?” Thiel said, referring to the company’s
DeepMind artificial intelligence project, which he said should be
considered a potential military weapon.
“Number two, does Google’s senior management consider itself to have
been thoroughly infiltrated by Chinese intelligence?” Thiel said,
according to Axios.
“Number three, is it because they consider themselves to be so
thoroughly infiltrated that they have engaged in the seemingly
treasonous decision to work with the Chinese military and not with the
U.S. military … because they are making the sort of bad, short-term
rationalistic [decision] that if the technology doesn’t go out the front
door, it gets stolen out the back door anyway?”
In response to the accusations, a Google spokesperson told CNBC, “As
we have said before, we do not work with the Chinese military.”
Thiel appeared on Fox News’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight” on July 15,
saying people almost never talk about the dual use of artificial
intelligence.
“If it’s real, if this is a real thing, it obviously can also be used
by the military, it’ll be weaponized in all sorts of ways, and it’s an
important national security question as to who has it,” he said.
“There’s this very peculiar background where Google is working with
the Chinese on communist government and not with the U.S. military; so
the Project Maven decision was a decision not to work with AI with the
U.S. military—but they’re working with the communist Chinese.”
Thiel suggested that Google’s touting of the project has made it susceptible to foreign interference.
“If you go around broadcasting that you’re building a Manhattan
Project for AI, I would think this naturally would draw the attention of
foreign intelligence agencies,” he said. “I think the Chinese are
confident enough, the Ministry of State Security is likely to have
infiltrated Google, and then I think the Google management has sort of a
decision of either letting the software go out the front door, or
figuring it will get stolen anyway and go out the back door.”
He said Google may be working with China because Google believes
China will get the technology one way or another. “And then I think, of
course, there’s probably, you know, a broad base of Google employees
that are ideologically super left-wing sort of woke, and think that
China is better than the U.S. Or that the U.S. is worse than China. It’s
always—it’s more anti-American than anything.”
Joe Londsdale, who helped found the Palantir company with Thiel, echoed his comments to CNBC.
“Google is not a patriotic company,” he said. “Everyone in [Silicon]
Valley knows that the Chinese government is very involved. It’s
something we don’t talk about a lot. It was very courageous of [Thiel]
to talk about it.”
