Careful. Back in the day of dial-up, I built a computer and named it NSA #1. The firewall reported over 100 pings per minute.

I have seen comments on other forums saying the Russians don’t use destruct. They cut off the engines. But only after a certain amount of time, so that, hopefully, the rocket has cleared the pad and is away from people.
