Summary:
Weaponizing information to counter weaponized information. Nations like Russia and China make billions of dollars a year in the arms industry. Their arming of other nations with the latest in defence technology is not only a means of supporting their respective economies, it also fits into a diplomatic and national defence strategy of their own. As information technology increasingly shapes the future of economics, society, politics and even warfare, the export of “information arms” appears to be an emerging opportunity not only for a nation’s economy, but also in enhancing a global balance of power that may help guard against rogue global super powers. Russiagate can be viewed as a US reaction to realizing that Russia is successfully learning lessons from what the US has been doing
