  • Stuxnet virus

    From Michiel van der Vlist@2:280/5555 to All on Fri Sep 6 00:28:45 2019
    Hello All,

    Earlier this week it was revealed that in 2007 the secret service of my country played a crucial role in delivering the stuxnet virus to the intended target in Iran.

    My government is an accomplice in the start of the Cyber War.

    I am not amused. :(


    Cheers, Michiel

    The web site of the local sheriff's office was hacked the other
    day - by a group claiming to be from Iran. These types of things
    are now a common occurence, not just in the US, but everywhere.

    Even third world countries have the capability to wreak havoc.
    Not just Iran or North Korea. Does not even have to be a country.

    Makes no difference who started it. This is the world we have
    created, and currently live in. How we deal with it is something
    we still have to figure out.
