what nationstates do not do and cannot do is steal stuff to make money. to steal innovation, formulas, plant seeds in order to benefit commercial enterprise. that is criminal behavior. that is different from the actions of a nationstate engaged in espionage. since the indictment of the pla actors, we have seen positive steps from china toward embracing that framework and understanding the difference between nations they conduct an criminal activity and helping us investigate the criminal activity. we are working very hard, whether it is through indictment, arrest, prosecution or simply naming, calling it out, and making people think about us before they put their fingers on the keyboard. the fourth thing we're trying to do is help state and local partners deal with the fact that almost every criminal investigation state requires digital literacy. in the good old days, for those of you who have been around a while, you can execute a search warrant on a drug location and find one of those black composition notebooks where people would have written how many

of justice is continuing to send a powerful message that we will not allow individuals, groups, nationstates, or a combination of them to compromise the privacy of our citizens, the economic interest of our companies or the security of our country. for those who may not be fully with the fsb, it is an intelligence and law enforcement agency and a successor to the soviet unions kgb. the fsb unit that the defendants worked for, the center for information security, also known as center 18, is also the fbi's point of contact in moscow for cybercrime matters. the involvement and direction of fsb officers with law enforcement response was makes this conduct that much more egregious. the are no free passes for four state-sponsored criminal behavior. through the work of the national security division, the fbi, united states attorneys offices around the country we continue to pursue national security cyber threats using all available tools to investigate malicious activity and achieve it bad to the country, agency, and even the individuals involved. when possible and supported by the evidence we inte

the idea that borders were significant, that they define nationstates, countries, and that there wasa deal out there that we won't try to change your borders by force if you don't try to change hours, and we won't mess around inside your territory if you don't interfere inside of hours. so i as a kind of live and let live society. this wasn't self banding. and when there was peace in the world it was largely because there was a balance of power. and when there wasn't peace in the world was because one way or another the balance of power broke down and one or another country saw advantage in trying to change the map. for me, didn't you question succinctly, the continuity with nationstates, great power competition being the principal driver or shaper of history, and that centrality of solid as the organizing principle. >> host: also what were the lessons learned? in this section of the book you do provide analysis, descripti description, contrasting one. to another. we share with us but with a lessons learned, particularly, as put it quote the unprecedented disorder of the 20th century

it's about the right of countries of nationstates to live in peace and pretty much do what they wantwithin their own border. these orders are not to be changed by force and no one is meant to be in a position to tell them how they act within their own borders. that's the basic idea. this is all well and good. my argument is it's no longer adequate for world where inside the country are virtually any country things are going on that will have repercussions not just for them but for everyone else so we don't have the luxury of simply saying whatever goes on inside the borders is your business alone because it turns out what goes on in the borders is our business. computers operate freely and they are selling stuff around the world from guns to drugs and nuclear and missile parts. they are acting a responsibly with regard to the environment. if they are producing and them enormous part of greenhouse gases those gases aren't going to stay in the border. they will spread around the world and contribute to climate change. on issue after issue regarding globalization we have to accept my fa

we are seeing more and more use by nationstates of criminal hackers to carry out some of their intentions. idle think it is necessarily unique to rush it -- i don't think it is necessarily unique to russia in this case. the indictment alleges in pretty great detail the conspiracy of these four men, the sharing of infrastructure, and hacking techniques and tools and procedures, the sharing of the c gains that were used to access into accounts, and contracting with baratov to do additional intrusions with other email providers, such as google. reporter: do you think there is a connection between this case and the hacking in t e election? can you speak to the president being subjected to surveillance at trump tower? mary: we don't allege any connection between this intrusion and the intrusion into the dnc. that is a separate investigation and i have no comment on the president. fsb was involved. that is just what the dental? thes-- that is just coincidental? mary: we don't have anything that suggests in our indictment that there is any relationship between those. reporter: is there any evide

you adopt the nationstate or the model of the nationstate for your very diversified piece and then you start struggling with the problems thereby unleashed by this process of adoption and adaptation. i've been writing about how this process played itself out in asia and africa. for this i had to go back and look at germany in the early 19th century with the increasing wealth and power and listening to its sophisticated neighbors. also the military challenge from them, germany or german-speaking people and how they responded to this enormous challenge. those feelings of being humiliated in a military campaign and having this man who occupies this country mocking and scorning your culture. all this particular interaction that you see.

some of the conversations are the types of conversations and documents that only somebody doing nationstateterested in. what's your biggest take away from them? has the cia done anything illegal as far as you're concerned? in the current dumps that we've seen they wouldn't necessarily be anything illegal, but one of the things we saw is the fact that there is a lot of research into actively bypassing security programmes, like antivirus and firewall. yes. edward snowden suggests that this showed the cia to have been reckless beyond words. he says using government money to keep open vulnerabilities in american products, phones, smart devices and so on so they can use them to gain access and get info themselves, but thereby leaving those devices open to other hackers. he says they could have told the makers of the iphone and iphone users, but he claims they chose not to. that's always a tough balance to pull. of course the terrorists out in the field use the same iphone as my mum. while i'd like to protect my mum, i also want to find out information about the terrorists. i understand the diffe
