In this podcast Tom Uren and Patrick Gray talk about the possibility of deterring Volt Typhoon, the Chinese group that is compromising US critical infrastructure to enable future disruption operations in the event of a conflict with US. Tom thinks it is not possible to deter Volt Typhoon, but things might work the other way.
