It's not like this is the first time #Google ads are weaponized. And it won't be the last. Meanwhile. Google blocks ad-blockers because it's lost at sea trying to figure out how to salvage its business. That's the wrong lane in the golden age of cybercrime. You'd think Google would be smarter than that. #infosec #cybersecurity

@npub1vcl…k6t3 You are right. And it isn't good news. But we've been pushing China hard enough to get a push back. There are some interesting results if you search for China's cyberoperations.
