If our power grid comes down blame our government for not hardening & upgrading.
They are either oblivious to, or don’t care about this issue.
20 year old story....refreshed...
If Russia wanted this access in the event of a future war, I could understand this, but why would the damage or screw with our grid now?
You can’t hack if it’s not on the worldwideweb. Who the fock made it vulnerable? Stupid fools.
I’ve told that to people in companies before.
They look at me like I just stepped off a spaceship.
IMHO, the Ruskies are just fooling around, testing, poking, probing, seeing what they can get away with.
Taking down just a small portion of our extremely vulnerable power grid will be devastating. Powers that be have known this for years but have done nothing much about it.
Lots of reading material on this. “One Second After” is a good one.
Try turning off the power to your house and turning off all the electronic devices (phones, etc.) for a weekend. It’ll be a real eye opener.
Check out Article.
Everyone has a flashlight and extra batteries, right? How about water, food, and ammo?
The sad thing is, if the Dems really cared about people, they would be voting to take measures to mitigate an attack on the grid, not trying to prove Trump “colluded” with the Russkis.
We can pray this does not happen.. for it would bring us to our knees... investigation, hate, would pale in comparison
Is that what happened to the power grid in CA?
Oh, that right, that’s totally mismanaged by the idiots running CA. Don’t do anything to increase power generation, just charge more dollars each year.
Kudos to Russia meddling. It has effectly prevented America from making more troubles to the world.
They will blame the CA wildfires on Russian hackers.
We do it all the time. It’s our cabin in the mountains with no services. Just a solar cell 12v system and what we store there. Jigsaw puzzles and card games by kerosene lantern. And Yahtzee. It gets more fun after each beer. We store a lot of that too.
We are ready. (Hic)
Trump is the one reversing America’s course and Russia’s meddling is casting shadow and providing fodder for liberals.
No Russia meddling.
Just liberals’coup attempt against Trump.
Enough of it for liberals to use/capitalize to sabotage President Trump. Which is just how Russia wanted it. Didn’t matter who was in office.
So you still can’t deny the liberal initiative of the coup.
