How real can any part of Canada feel for a US crime, medical show or other drama?
How many US actors in Canada can hold a well written show together?
Will US advertisers accept any content between their ads? Will people in the US pay to watch people in Canada trying to be 1800 or 1980's or 2018 USA?
How many US actors would be needed for a new Canadian created drama, that looks 100% made in the USA for the US market? Is digital work that expensive for a few skylines? Would other nations match funding just to get a production going and support new jobs for their workers and authors?
US writers should have ensured their content was out of reach in any other nation by ensuring more difficult to clone US only content.

What can vendors of quality AV software and networks do?
Some sort of "other" secure computer on the final network out, apart from all the infected OS, junk hardware, junk big brand firewalls on random days?
How much is human collected? How much is just kept internally for later network collection after a human infected a system?
Human placed? Network placed? Human collected or network collected. Human placed malware and later data is also collected by a human.
Should AV detection consider the idea that the owners and users with access are a real threat too? Not just something new up or down the network.
Physical access cant be stopped as the malware is inserted by an operative but AV could send a message back to its creators that something new and interesting was changed by the "owner". Start to phone home more details about every very secure system. The infection cant be avoided thanks to lax physical access
but changes can be gathered by AV.
To have contractors in the private sector find the code litter and the tech media copy and paste a report its another "nation".
Thats why the "time zone", "ip range" and "language" litter found was always key to showing the origin of any malware.
Getting the data out of some network might not even be the mission.
The code litter is found by the private sector "experts" later is the propaganda win in the tech media.
Russia does not have any need for "code". They have generations of well placed spies and people who want to help globally.
They don't have to trust consumer grade networks and junk encryption on standard digital devices. The Soviet Union understood codes fail, like in the 1950's.
So the Soviet Union and Russia got smart and moved to more secure methods and went for the human side of spying.
The NSA, CIA and GCHQ just kept on putting more funding into computers and digital collection methods, always just expecting the world to always be more digital.
Everyone has a home computer, every one has a smart phone, every hotel has a smart TV, every company keeps their secrets near the internet.
The US and UK also have a culture of contractors and people from the outside helping/giving "orders" to gov/mil staff.
Wage difference, lack of dignity, lack of advancement, no esprit de corp in the West over generations adds to issues only found in the West.
The GCHQ finally fully understood why information leaks, staff walk out and had the methods to keep staff happy in the West by the 1970's.
But the US private sector would have be shut out of gov and mil contracts. So the GCHQ ideas about a better gov workplace got replaced by every more lobbying for more US contractors and private sector support.
In Russia its your rank, your profession, your uniform, your medals, your advancement, your mil, your nation to defend, your honour, a privilege with good educational support.
In the West its a day job, the boss with party political connections, their private sector profit and shareholders, lobbyists and job insecurity. Government workers who dream of private sector wealth, private sector workers who dream of some full time employment.
Moving around the US or UK as a contractor to support the mil/gov with its data collection, computer issues is not a fun profession.
Re "What is the argument against net neutrality ?"
An ISP has to spend a lot of profit upgrading their networks to support apps, movie streaming, P2P and other 24/7 users.
The average ISP can cap data, slow P2P, block ports, try to split consumer accounts and business grade accounts.
But consumers then scream "net neutrality" and demand their 24/7 data usage and that huge amounts of movie/series streaming should be allowed all month, every month. All on uncapped consumer plans.
So an ISP has to buy more bandwidth, actually invest in networks.
With net neutrality removed an ISP can finally offer a separate but equal internet.
Want P2P, an ISP will have a plan for that.
Streaming tv/series? An ISP can support that with local servers that have more of the most watched content ready.
Jut want to enjoy the social media internet? A plan with new data caps can support that.
Finally the ISP is getting their fair share of network profit that was once lost to streaming brands and social media getting a free ride on ISP networks and peering.
The CIA likes a few different methods to get in. Why risk network detection on the way in or out of a complex, secure network? So a lot of methods need a human on site to access a computer system from a trusted location. Why risk a network and firewall when charming local staff gets past a lot of very powerful, bespoke network protections?
When done, collect the data in person and remove all traces. Or have the network send out trusted data from within.
Thats why the network vs needs physical access is often mentioned a lot.
A person walks in and talks directly to the manager of an office for a few minutes. Is that person who walked in now "trusted"? They start working with computers in the office?
No need to worry about cards, networks, freewalls, computers, passwords as staff are happy to help and share their own.
The stranger talks a lot about head office and tech support, upgrades and adds a bit of jargon. The manager seems fine with it, the usb stick slides in.
A cleaner holds a door open at 6 pm in an office for a person who forgot their ID at their desk. The person must be telling the truth as they got into the building and past all the security. Why try a very secure HQ when some remote office has the same network access and much less security?
A lot of the work might be done in nations where expected support is from the USA and English is a second language at best.
The only way for nations to protect agains this is not to have anything interesting on anything Windows and encrypt everything interesting to their own standard.
Nations have to learn not to trust their own internal networks, site security, the charming person for "support" or who their own staff offer to help.
Expect anything in any office or consumer or public space to be accessed by a person with a "story". Great network security is nice but secure the vital data from walk in efforts.
Symantec Endpoint did find Cricket Install under the 'Scheduled Task EXE VARIANTESET"
But it gets past so many vendors, how good was behavioral detection at the time?
Many security experts, consultants, private sector groups will be looking at this. Strange code would not last long once published.
Note the code litter is again made to look like another nation.
The US mil looked at that from everything they learned from how weapons got used and who did what in ww1,2, Korea and Vietnam.
How to move from a draft system to a way of pre sorting professional soldiers who would always obey orders.
GPU and CPU work also cost a lot in the 1980's To surround a tank crew with "West Germany" in real time, moving 3d was not going to be something an average person at home could do.
People at home got good physics in games but very simple line art over a war zone.
As the GPU and CPU got much better, everyone can now enjoy deeper plots and very detailed art.
Entire generations now grow up with drone like games. In the 1960 and 1970's such reactions would have to be tested for and learned much later given every early TV like guidance attempts.
re "fantasies have to evolve around the closest approximation to real war we can produce."
In the past different political groups, cults, faiths would gain power all over the world in cities and towns.
Now the West has elections and democracy.
Political, cults, communist parties, monarchies, theocracies and faith based groups would just list links in their forums and sites to urge votes on content.
Freedom of speech and after speech would be lost.
Is blasphemy in a nation with freedom of speech bad content?
The local witch doctor, spiritual healer or prophet saw a new business opportunity and decided to expand their status in the community.

People move around with cell data plans, can have their display glanced at by random strangers.
People know police could demand a cell device as part of an "investigation" (legal or not).
So people might be more careful with a cell device. Sure they have lots of different options with cell networks but their data use is more careful.
A desktop user at home is secure in their papers and rights. A court needs to provide a reason to enter their home and search their desktop computer.
So a home broadband connection needs even more privacy. A person does their medical, tax, work searches from the security of their own home broadband.
Not in public on a cell network. If an area only has one good broadband network provider then that needs privacy protections.
Or giving select people free internet and university education in the USA?
By spreading around free internet and free university education some people will have to make it to the better paying jobs on average?
If only nations with free university educations, fast internet and good education systems could be compared to the USA?
Would the ratio of woman, their pay and skills change in the USA with vast amounts of public education spending?
Do some parts of the USA spend the same as the EU per student on science education?
If such perfect nations can be found what would they show? Woman have then had all the same quality free education, the same free university options, the same fast internet at home?
Do more woman enter maths and engineering if everything is paid for in full by their own nation? No debt, no loans, merit selection for anyone wanting to enter math or engineering.
Or would the medical and biology side see more interest? Art? History? Vocational education? Or given the vast state support services the option to look after a family?
