风声鹤唳,草木皆兵,科教领域面临全面冲击?据美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)美东时间5月20日下午1:28分报道,美国国土安全部(US Department of Homeland Security,DHS)周一发布警报(Alert),就所谓的中国制造的无人机窃取敏感数据,表达严重关切。
这距离美国总统特朗普针对华为签署行政命令,以国家紧急状态(national emergency)的名义,不点名地禁止与华为的商业往来,仅仅五天。同特朗普的行政命令一样,美国国安部的这份警报,并没有点名特定公司,但美国和加拿大所使用的80%的无人机,都来自位于深圳的大疆公司。而在全球无人机市场,大疆份额也高达74%。据CNN报道,美国国安部警报提醒用户从中国购买无人机时要提高警惕,了解风险,小心操作,以防信息和数据被窃。大疆则发布声明,强调安全是其核心价值,大疆的用户对数据如何收集、存储、和传输,具有完全的控制和自主。声明还指出,在每一天,美国的企业、急救人员、和政府部门都依赖大疆无人机拯救生命、提高安全、支撑运营,大疆对此高度负责:Every day, American businesses, first responders, and U.S. government agencies trust DJI drones to help save lives, promote worker safety, and support vital operations, and we take that responsibility very seriously美国国安部的警报则声称对此强烈关切:The United States government has strong concerns about any technology product that takes American data. Those concerns apply with equal force to certain Chinese-made (unmanned aircraft systems)-connected devices capable of collecting and transferring potentially revealing data about their operations and the individuals and entities operating them…上周,华为因为类似的所谓国家安全风险被禁。根据维基百科信息,轰动一时的前中央情报局雇员Snowden爆料,美国多家情报部门与网络公司合作开门,光2013财年用于此的经费预算即高达530亿美金,华盛顿邮报曾对此做深度报道。不清楚美方对华为或者大疆是否有类似请求。不仅中国企业在美国被另眼对待,侨居美国的普通中国学生学者、工程师、和商务人士也处境尴尬。据专业学界媒体高教内参(Inside Higher Ed)报道,4月26日,联邦调查局(FBI)局长Christopher Wray在美国外交委员会发言,再次重申他对所谓中国社会窃密的观点:China has pioneered a societal approach to stealing innovation in any way it can from a wide array of businesses, universities and organizations. They’re doing it through Chinese intelligence services, through state-owned enterprises, through ostensibly private companies, through graduate students and researchers, througha variety of actors, all working on behalf of China.风声鹤唳,草木皆兵?您对此如何看待,不妨留言与大伙讨论。
