——Your thoughts on the movie "Who Am I: There Is No Absolute Security System",
please allow me to speak nonsense seriously!
Before expounding my personal understanding, let's briefly distinguish a few concepts:
The term "environment" can cover many scenarios. It is relative to a certain subject. The size and content of the environment are also different if the subject is different. . Here we first simply divide it into "material environment" and "non-material environment".
"Physical environment" refers to the actual environment composed of objective substances. We can see and touch it.
"Intangible environment" refers to a virtual environment composed of non-material factors including concepts, systems, and codes of conduct. It can be said that it is an imaginary community of people in the same area.
Every environment has a physical reality environment and an immaterial virtual environment.
Since I will continue to switch scenes to illustrate, I will simply semicolon the various environments:
for example: Benjamin’s childhood can be simply labeled as environment 1; his adolescence can be represented as environment 2. And so on...
【 Environment 1] The helpless childhood
father went to France and never met Benjamin. His mother committed suicide when he was eight years old. Only an elderly grandma took care of him. Growing up in such an unfortunate childhood, Benjamin, who is insecure, would not easily interact with the outside world.
"Ich wollte schon immer ein Superheld sein, mit einer Superkraft. I have always wanted to be a superhero since I was a child, with super powers. Ich wollte Dinge tun, die niemand fürmöglich hält I want to do things that no one else can do." This is Benjamin's inner monologue, longing for the respect and approval of others. Under the influence of this inner need, just because his tragic family background is similar to that of Spiderman and Batman, he also intended that he might be the next superhero.
But what about reality? Things backfired, and no one paid any attention to him.
He said so. "In Wirklichkeit hatte ich bereits eine Superkraft. Ich war unsichtbar. And in real life, I have a super power long ago, no one can see me"
Faced with such an environment, little Benjamin slowly developed an inferiority complex and introverted The character can only helplessly become the weird person among the companions, suffering from the neglect and ridicule of others.
People are the products of the environment, and the environment shapes their concepts and character. Only when people grow up and mature, can they contend with the environment a little bit or escape from the original environment. Only when it is strong enough, can the environment be changed slightly.
Before that, in the face of the environment, people had almost no power to fight back, letting the environment dictate and shape.
[Environment 2] Adolescence addicted to the Internet (the ability to accumulate the ability to change the environment)
Lines in the film:
Seitdem ich 14 war, verbrachte ich meine Zeit hinter dem Rechner.
Since the age of fourteen, I have been living in front of the computer.
Ich lernte Programmiersprachen,Knackte meine ersten Systeme
I learned to program and cracked my first system.
Ein Universum aus unendlichen Möglichkeiten is
a universe
with unlimited possibilities. Und zum ersten Mal, hatte ich das Gefühl dass ich gut in etwas war.
It is also the first time that I feel that I can really be good at doing something.
In der echten Welt war ich eine Null unter Einsen.
Before, in reality, I was the insignificant
unknown person Ein Außenseiter. Ein Verlierer. Ein Freak.
A lonely man, a loser, a weird
Aber im Nets gehörte ich dazu .Hier konnte ich sein, wer ich wolltel.
But I belong to the online world, where I can be whoever I want to be.
A person has been ridiculed and ignored for a long time, and his heart is extremely eager to be respected and recognized by others. When he finds a way to meet his inner needs, he will be like many children who are unsatisfactory in reality often indulge in games looking for a sense of identity, sense of accomplishment, care, friendship, excitement, etc., the more he can prove himself Value, the more he enjoys it, the more he forgets about it, and even forgets real life.
In the world of computer networks, Benjamin gained peer recognition by hacking the system, and he was sought after by fans, and even the panic from the outside could make him excited. He feels that he can really be good at doing something and no longer fail like in reality. Like a fish in water, he gradually found himself in the online world. He said, "I belong to the online world, where I can be whoever I want to be."
At this time, we are very clear that Benjamin's environment has changed a little.
Specifically, his "non-material environment" has changed. Originally, he simply stayed in the physical environment, such as schools, homes, various buildings, and so on. Now he has entered a "non-material environment" such as the Internet. His lifestyle has also been changed, staying in front of the computer day and night, staying up late to play on the computer, and restoring sleep during the day. In order to gain the improvement of skills and the appreciation of idol WRX, take the psychotropic drug Ritalin. In contrast to his crazy behavior, based on the 10,000-hour theory in the book "Alien", it is not difficult to know that Benjamin has already become a person with a high degree of understanding of computer science, programming and design (that is, what we are Said hacker)
Benjamin at this stage has acquired a professional ability in the "immaterial environment" network. This ability is powerful enough to change the "material environment" he was in at the time, such as attacking the websites of various institutions and so on.
[Environment 3] When the mischievous CLAY team (new social collaboration)
delivered pizza to the goddess Mary in middle school, she knew that Mary was worried that she would not be able to pass the law test. Benjamin wanted to steal the test questions by attacking the university server. Favor of the goddess. As a result, he was arrested and fined to serve the community and help clean up the rubbish.
Therefore, Benjamin's super ability in network was appreciated by the Max team and invited him to become a member of the team.
"Ersten: Begrenze deine Aktionen nicht auf die virtuelle Welt."
First: Don't restrict your behavior in the virtual world;
"Zweitens: Dreistigkeit siegt"
Second: You can win if you dare to do it
"Drittens: Kein System ist sicher."
Third: No system is safe.
The above are the three hacking principles Max said to Benjamin. He made Benjamin realize that humans pursue safety, but there is no safety at all. The biggest security hole is not in any program or server. Humans are the biggest security hole.
Soon they named the team CLAY (meaning Clown Laugh at You), because they thought all this was for fun and fun, and it was also a symbol of the clown mask.
CLAY has invaded the national financial system, drug manufacturers, e-commerce ordering systems, pornographic platforms and other institutions one after another, and presented it to people on the network platform in a prank manner. In the process of arousing various discussions among the whole people on the "legitimacy of animal experiments", "social discussions about whether hackers are illegal", etc., they also gained appreciation and became stars of the whole people.
However, they are more looking forward to getting the admiration of idol MRX.
At this stage, we can see that Benjamin's "non-material environment" has been qualitatively improved.
That is, he has a new social collaboration relationship. He is no longer as lonely and helpless as before. With the recognition and support of the team, he gets better comfort in his heart, and his abilities are fully displayed and enlarged.
Furthermore, he changed the "material environment" he was in at that time. For example, they hacked many institutions they wanted to hack, causing a certain amount of social panic.
At this time, the change in the "material environment" also changed their "non-material environment", and they became famous from their obscurity. This "non-material environment" change may also quietly change them. For example, they may lose themselves because of their reputation...
[Environment 4] From a prank to an offence (negatively changing the nature of the incident),
however, things are counterproductive. Currently, the CLAY behavior, which is currently classified as a harmless organization by Europol, is fundamentally successful. Not recognized by idol MRX. For this reason, they hope to gain the recognition of idols by attacking the German intelligence agency at the Royal German level.
In the process, Benjamin ignored the team's agreement that "no touch other things, nothing else, the target is the printer", and privately stolen the encrypted files of the German Intelligence Agency.
Later, Benjamin quarreled with Max because of Mary. Even more because of Max’s words "Without us, you are nothing", Benjamin sent the stolen Intelligence Bureau documents to MRX in a fit of anger. Unexpectedly, WRX is a member of the Russian hacker criminal organization FR13NDS. After WRX found in the data that the team member Krypton was an informant of the German Intelligence Agency, FR13NDS killed Krypton.
Therefore, Benjamin indirectly caused Krypton to be shot and killed by the organization.
The tragic growth experience gave Benjamin a glass heart who longed to be recognized and respected. He especially cares about how others think of himself. So he who joined CLAY tried his best to prove his worth to his companions.
The unsatisfactory relationship and the unintentional words of his companions completely angered Benjamin. In anger, people lacked the basic sense and sent the information to WRX in confusion, causing serious consequences.
At this stage, their physical environment has not changed much. However, their "immaterial environment" has undergone tremendous changes because of the "disclosure of information": hoaxes immediately become crimes that threaten the security of state secrets, and they also involve homicides. CLAY, a harmless organization, was therefore classified as a harmful organization. They will face sanctions by national laws...
[Environment 5] Leading to the failure of MRX and being hunted down (again negatively changing the nature of the incident)
To save themselves, CLAY must exchange MRX and FR13NDS for freedom, as long as It was proved that MRX was behind the death of Kryptons, and they could return to freedom again.
Then CLAY expressed to MRX that he wanted to join the FR13NDS organization. MRX used mission probing and asked them to install Trojan virus on Europol server in order to enter the Interpol system at any time to track and modify the investigation situation.
In order to trace the IP address of the MRX computer, they followed the plan described by Stephen to "pregnant mare"-one Trojan virus contained another Trojan virus. As long as MRX logs in to the Interpol server through their portal, the IP address will be exposed.
However, MRX saw through the trick, in order to exchange information, induced Benjamin to log on to a dark network. Because the entrance code itself was an IP tracker, Benjamin's identity was subsequently exposed, and he was almost at risk of being attacked by the FR13NDS organization.
At this stage, Benjamin's "physical environment" has not changed much.
Benjamin wants to exchange MRX and FR13NDS for freedom, this is to change the "immaterial environment" he is in. However, the "non-material environment" deteriorated further: because of identity exposure, it was pursued and killed by the FR13NDS organization.
[Environment 6A] MRX has been revealed, and CLAY has committed a crime (positively changing the nature of the incident).
In order to enter the witness protection program, Benjamin chose to join forces to arrest Hannah, the chief investigator of FR13NDS.
Then Benjamin faked the identity of MRX to shake up the whole thing in Forum A: MRX is a member of the FR13NDS organization, worked for the government, sold hackers' personal information, supervised hackers, and killed Krypton.” Because there are many hackers in Forum A. These. Hackers usually mix in Forum A and Forum B, and naturally spread the news from Forum A to Forum B. When
MRX heard the news in Forum B, they rushed into Forum A in desperation. Unexpectedly, the entry password of Forum A is an IP tracker. As soon as the MRX password was logged in, the IP address was tracked. In the
end, the Federal Interpol captured the 19-year-old New York youth Sean Dunham in the United States.
(Note: The carriages A and B in the film refer to the virtual world of the Internet. Forum A, B)
In the "non-material environment" that has deteriorated severely, Benjamin faces the pursuit of the FR13NDS organization anytime and anywhere. In order to save himself, he chose to jointly solve the case with Hannah and entered the "witness protection plan." So he obtained another new kind of social collaboration. At the same time, his "non-material environment" has improved, that is, with the protection of the government, the risk of being hunted down is reduced.
Then, Benjamin's ability was released and amplified in the new social collaboration, allowing the FBI to capture other related members of the MRX and FR13NDS organizations. Since then, Benjamin's "non-material environment" has continued to improve, avoiding life threats.
[Environment 6B] Misleading Hannah’s team out of danger (positively changing the nature of the incident)
(Note that this environment started when I wanted to induce MRX for the second time. In addition to trying to catch WRX, CLAY also wanted to hide Hannah I saved the other three, so I named it Environment 6B, which means it is the same stage as Environment 6A)
CLAY uses social engineering and Benjamin’s family background to create a fact that makes Hannah’s decision to produce a cognitive bias.
Hannah was suspended. She wanted to seize WRX and FR13NDS to restore her reputation, so she chose to trust Benjamin.
With the arrest of WRX, Officer Hanna was reinstated. However, she gradually realized that Benjamin seemed to be making up a story.
Because she felt that all the details were suspicious:
the nail hole in Benjamin’s hand was the same as the situation of Max’s hand injury described by Benjamin;
Mary , who was questioned by her, made it clear that there was no contact with Benjamin;
Benjamin’s mother was out of control due to the quadruple personality. Suicide;
Benjamin is withdrawn and may have inherited the disease;
Benjamin is eating Ritalin, which may trigger a quadruple personality; the
three bullet shells are the relics of Grandpa Benjamin’s World War II;
Stephen’s car key is on Benjamin’s body;
Paul’s mother The circumstances of his death were the same as Benjamin’s mother;
no bodies of the other three could be found in all the hotels in The Hague;
...
These details made professional Hannah reflexively conclude that Benjamin has four personalities, and Max, Stephen and Paul are just three personalities he created. CLAY is Benjamin alone, but Benjamin didn't realize that he has a fourfold personality.
This scene is the most enjoyable part of the whole movie. Before they hacked only a certain system on the network. But the most advanced technique is to hack a person's cognitive system. As they said, there is no system that cannot be blacked out.
All social engineering attacks are built on the basis of making people’s decision to produce cognitive biases, and must not make the person feel manipulated. This attack is only considered successful when the person himself realizes that everything seems to have another connection. .
Everyone will only see what he wants to see. So they created an illusion that "Benjamin has a fourfold personality", so that Hannah felt that she had identified the truth with her outstanding professional ability.
In this way, Max, Stephen and Paul completely escaped Hannah's suspicion and investigation. The "immaterial environment" of the three of them has since become safe and free as before.
Because Hannah believes that Benjamin has a fourfold personality, Benjamin cannot qualify for the Witness Protection Program. Benjamin's "non-material environment" immediately faced the supervision of being transferred to the district court and the pursuit of FR13NDS.
Finally, because of Hannah's sympathy and pity, Benjamin allowed him to modify the procedure and entered the "witness protection plan."
[Environment 7] The
final scene of life after entering the "Witness Protection Program" (changing to a new environment) : The CLAY team and Mary are heading to another new city by boat.
At this time, Benjamin had no identity information such as name, hometown, etc. in Germany. As Max said, "Now even Interpol doesn't know who you are." They will start a new life...
Anyone who enters the Witness Protection Program is like a newborn, who will generally be anonymous and even undergo plastic surgery. They will live under a new name in a new city. No one knows their past...
Faced with the new environment, no one knows what will happen to them. They may return to their old professions or start new jobs.
As Benjamin said,
Dass man erstmal rausfinden muss, wer man ist.
One must first figure out who he is.
Aber man kann sein wer man will. Man kann alles sein.
But man can be who he wants to be, and he can be anyone.
Back to the topic "How do people break free from the shackles of the original environment?" The discussion
came up with this topic because I once faced the choice of "holding on or fleeing from Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen", and I was forced by my family in the end. Choose to return to his hometown-a third-tier city.
I am unwilling to be "captured" by the ease in front of me, and even less willing to be assimilated by people around me.
In order to get better growth, I slowly explored some ways to break free from the shackles of the existing environment, and I borrowed the plot of the movie to say it.
For your reference:
To accumulate your professional skills,
you must have skills to work and make money to support yourself. If your professional ability is very ordinary, it may mean that you are insignificant in the work unit and it is difficult for you to obtain better development opportunities. Faced with any arrangement made by the company, you have no room for bargaining. Either accept it or just resign and leave. If you want to change this situation, you must choose a direction, use deliberate practice, and constantly improve your professional abilities. When your practice reaches a certain level and you can easily solve those things that are regarded as difficult by others, the market will naturally give you fair treatment and more opportunities for performance.
New social collaboration relationship.
A person who wants to improve is not only to keep working hard to practice skills, but also to put himself in a better quality collaboration relationship. The speed of response and collaboration in this high-quality environment will reshape your sense of life.
How efficient are you for collaboration, how should people interact with each other, and how to iterate at a high speed for all the services and products that surround you. You will create a whole new sense, and before you know it, you have completed the upgrade.
Let yourself stand in the right place, and there are many excellent people around this place who will bless your growth.
For example: working hard to appreciate, there will be excellent people coming to you to cooperate; working hard to get promoted, you can communicate and docking with people at a better level; change jobs and find a company with a better working environment; set up a better cooperation mechanism and so on.
Changing the nature of the incident is
also reading, some people try their best, some give up halfway. Because in their hearts, reading has a different place. For poor children, reading may be the only way to change their own destiny; for boys who want to fall in love, reading may be a way for him to gain recognition from the girls in the class... The
same is to use his professional skills, and some are to support his family. Some are to show off their skills, some are to perfunctory work, and some are to win projects for entrepreneurship...
Think about it, what do you care about most. Let what you do try to get involved with it until you can persuade you to invest more energy or resources.
Replacing the new environment
Of course, the environment has objectivity that can be changed without human will. Regardless of employment or innovation environment, first-tier cities will definitely be better than third- and fourth-tier cities. The corresponding rules are relatively transparent and fair. Therefore, there are always many young people who have fled Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen because they cannot adapt to the life of third- and fourth-tier cities, and once again embark on the journey of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
If your efforts still fail to improve your life slightly, then you can consider developing in a place that is more suitable for you.
Redefining the concept.
If you dislike a person, you may use the word "hate" to describe it. This word will aggravate this resentment in your mind. You can try to redefine the word "hate", such as replacing it with "I haven't liked it yet." When you face this person again, at least you won't feel more disgusted. On the contrary, you will face this fact calmly and carefully analyze the reason.
If you replace the "backward city" with the "developing city", you immediately jump out of the negative perspective and begin to discover the beauty and opportunities of this city.
Try to update the concepts in your mind, change your original view of things, and gradually jump out of the original thought pattern.
