    Could we not tie critical infrastructure to the open web? I know it’s great to have these systems communicating with each other, but damn…hire some extra humans to throw the important switches and push the right buttons air gapped from the web so that some malicious actor can’t cause massive damage from halfway around the world via a few lines of code.

        Let’s underfund critical security to stoke xenophobia to stri up more nationalism and feed the MIC even more money. Oh, and don’t forget to buy a personal arsenal for Doomsday!
