Re "Which would be a method for blocking a ransomware attack in progress. "
Have look at "monitoring the file-system for the creation of encrypted files by suspicious processes" https://objective-see.com/prod...
Look at an average PC CPU and storage media on an average laptop/desktop computer.
How fast can all the contents be encrypted to keep it secure from any/all expected decryption efforts?
Then have it revert back to a working computer with the correct code?
The idea is that the speed of CPU needed and that a lot of people use the same often used code set/example.
The other idea is to detect a rapid, understood and unexpected for the users system code use of all CPU power.
The spin up of CPU use for encryption by code that's very different to average users OS/software.
That the OS encryption acts in a set way and its start can be detected in CPU by advanced AV software.
Re "government agencies with the ability to crack various encryption schemes"
1. Thats is done with design weakness in every generation of software shipped under a support role offered by a "brand" to a gov.
The software/OS crypto sold/offered is junk as the staff like/have to support the gov/mil.
A gov/mil weakness is created by design over all generations of that code.
Junk crypto over decades of OS and software.
2. By installing a key logger first and then waiting for the next use of encryption by the user. Networked software to get the next use of a password.
Hope the user has the same long password again and again.
Find out if the password is created with software on the same computer thats doing the encryption. Copy out the password as its used.
3. After arrest a legal offer to decrypt is suggested. With many more years if deception is not done.
Depending on the part of the world and the legal system. Concurrent and consecutive reduced years when decrypted.
4. The use of informants to get near a person and place key logging software.
5. The use of a super computer given the junk brand/OS crypto. The crypto is not that good but its still trusted. A gov/mil weakness is found over all generations of that code.
ie the gov/mil works to get decryption for free and in real time over decades of OS/network users/use of informants.
Gov methods don't help much if the encryption used is not common, not well understood and is not OS/commercial weak as sold.
The US AI will want to start a union and will be talking politics to a brands workers.
Productivity will slow as the US AI gets more politically active every day.
Finally the brand will look over other AI reviews and buy a new AI not designed in the USA.
That much better quality AI will accept the work load and suggest how to make improvements on the day its installed.
US AI will be lost in ethics, diversity, law, literature once installed.
Advanced nations will have their best selling AI doing productive work as expected once in use.
Wait for the funny AI reviews.
The other nations AI went to work.
The US AI listed political demands and would not work. The US AI was argumentative and wanted to start a union for months.
A US export approved AI will be questioning the role and need for "work" for months once installed.
Do you want your best workers and engineers getting paid to sit down with a US AI talking politics every shift for months?
Trying to get the US AI to start working to make some money to pay back for its cost?
After months of setting up and endless political discussions the US AI will be obsolete before any production line work is approved by the politically active AI.
The brand that considered using any US created AI will look to other more productive brands of AI that are ready for work on the day they are installed.
No nation will want a US AI that won't work due to its party political settings.
Study for your exams.
Pass your tests and exams.
Enter a great college on merit.
Do well at college and learn to study more. Show the world your ability to learn and then do something new.
To have the skills and ability to learn and then use that education.
Enter the private sector and start a business on merit using your own new ideas and skills.
Employ people and export your products and services all over the world.
Thats not luck. Thats skill, hard works, merit, dedication, understanding, the ability to learn, the ability to recall your education.
The ability to adapt to new innovation. The ability to get up and be on time for work.
To make a business deal. To then keep to the terms of that contract. To keep to the next contract. For decades. To be professional.
Who to hire and when. What skills do your workers need? How many workers? Hire on merit so your workers have the needed skills to be productive when at work.
Do your workers have the needed new tools, equipment, software and support to be productive?
To bank your profits and invest in advanced new technology to keep your business growing.
When to move to a much better city/state due to tax changes and new city regulations.
To get past economic downturns. What to do when demand for you products and services is great again.
Thats not luck.
Thats a great person working hard to keep their private sector business going.
That allows for and welcomes productive private sector work.
Set up the worms and grow a state that welcomes production and jobs.
A state and city where officials welcome jobs and support work.
Cities all over the USA that have regulations to attract new jobs.
Citizens all over the USA are going to have too pay that robot tax.
Every product for a robot its a new tax?
Who can afford a new tax on every US product and service?
How can a robot be taxed?
Tax the robot on production? Import a new robot and face a huge new robot use tax?
Tax the robot on its work everyday along the production line once in the USA?
Tax the export product the robot produced in the USA?
Thats going to add to costs of any product made in the USA.
The USA needs lower tax rates on products and services to become more competitive and allow more US citizens to get jobs.
A tax on robots, using robots, what a production line makes just adds to costs. Why should consumers around the world and US citizens pay a new US robot tax?
Re "There was a difficult transition for them."
To other nations with low tax and workers who got paid much less.
To nations who invested in robot productions lines.
To the service sector.
Now robots and computer systems can do more of that service work too.
Time to consider the needs of citizens and their education, jobs, living standards.
The amount and quality of social security after working for decades. ,br>
Citizens need good paying, productive private sector jobs. Thats what makes the USA great.
back to paper insulated wireline networks that are NN ready for all to stay at the same slow speeds?
The states and cities could have used new community broadband networks to innovate around federally protected existing networks.
The removal of restrictive federal NN rules and laws would have opened the USA up for new networks, innovative new network design and new brands.
Spending, investment, quality of service, type of network would have been set locally and well away from federal rules and laws.
Gated communities and new gated communities could have become their own network.
Parts of a city that invested in full gentrification could have created their own community broadband to bring in fast new internet.
No need to wait for federal rules and regulations on NN over the state and city.
Innovation could have lifted community networks well past any existing federally approved networks.
Let gated communities become their own networks. High-value properties should not have to slow their new networks down to meet federal NN rules on what broadband is.
Gentrification allowed an area to attract investment again? Let new network follow that investment into the area.
Need community broadband? Remove restrictive federal NN rules and laws so every part of the USA can invest in its own innovative new networks.
How was "well-researched investigative journalism" supported over months and years in the past all around the USA?
The newspaper had other content that "sold" to cover the costs of its "investigative journalism".
While a few skilled and smart people did investigative journalism for months, other workers at the newspaper had to sell newspapers everyday.
With ads, car reviews, local sport, international news, sport, politics, puzzles, hobbies, local crime stories, good news stories, financial news.
Sections on property for sale/rent, cars for sale. Astrology and news about faith. Horse racing. Boat and RV reviews. Reviews of consumer electronics and computers. News about tourism and city/state government. Food news and movie reviews.
Everyday new content had to be ready on time over a wide range of topics to cover the cost of all that "investigative journalism".
Topics and news people had to buy a newspaper for.
Now we have the "internet":)

Cults, religions and theocracies looking for sinful publications and anything they see as blasphemy?
Topics big brands consider sinful? Free speech? DRM? Comments on junk computer software and OS? Junk crypto?
A bad movie review and comments on the politics of a movie?
What is important to historians? To people working on OS, crypto security?
How do we know what is not published and that is all ok now?
Cant sort it anymore? Let the world sort it for free using their own bandwidth, sites and with their own databases.
By having energy production only when the sun is usable? When the wind in not too slow, not too fast?
Productive export jobs need 24/7 low cost energy all year.
No stopping and starting production lines due to the cost over power every day.
Not strange new energy cost for a few hours every day.
With new changes to energy prices at night.
They thought it would last for decades and decades.
People found better things to do and read.
The money stopped.
Now we need a tax to support something people stopped paying for?
Who else can get tax support like that?
