Cyberattacks Put Russian Fingers on the Switch at Power Plants, U.S. Says

I'm no expert, but rather than watching attacks for three years and then issuing some ineffectual reports and sanctions, wouldn't it have been better to just lock down the damn power plants? If you're smart enough to notice all this nefarious activity and correctly attribute it to somebody on the other side of the globe even though we know that other parties use all the same tools they use, why aren't you smart enough to just fix the vulnerabilities they're using? Curious!

This combined with the election meddling and recent assassination in the UK feels like a clear reignition of the cold war.

The more I see it the more it looks like these guys are getting ready for a war. The 2016 election hacks seem to have been a decade-long plan. I hope it never comes to this. At a time when the country is divided, we may have trouble responding.

Well, if we'd stop meddling in Russia, maybe they'd do the same. I'm pretty sure we are trying to hack into their systems.
