Russia? China? Random hack group?

Given that the CIA/Biden blew up their pipelines to keep Germany on the NATO plantation, you need to open your mind a bit wider to encompass all possibilities.

Just yesterday VW announced they would temporarily cut production of two EV models due to weaker demand.

Windows update.

Everybody talks about not having a single point of failure. But all they tend to do is make more single points of failure. The wrong computer goes down and suddenly all the other computers can’t talk to each other and you’re hosed.

All those are likely candidates, you have to ask yourself, what is their motivation to do this particular job.

What a lot of people don’t understand is, most of the so called “hacks” are human hacks, meaning someone within the company knowingly or most times unknowingly has created the problem.

It could be some pissed off internal IT person who is behind this, I was contracted to a major worldwide Energy company when one of the guys on our small team, opened an infected email, fortunately before the virus got out of hand it was contained but this particular guy nearly lost his job over something that was another department’s screw up.

I was working at General Dynamics when a high-level manager accessed his personal email from work, clicked on a link in a hacker’s email and shut down the entire network worldwide. When I talked to the people running the network, they wouldn’t tell me who it was, but they mentioned nothing was going to happen to him...meaning somebody “in the family.” It was an incredibly stupid thing to do, and we’d all been trained not to do the things he did...accessing personal email. Clicking on dubious stuff. That was a firing offense for anyone who wasn’t “in the family.” Likewise, ANY accusation of racism by a black against a white got the white summarily fired...unless, he was “in the family” in which case it was ignored. And, probably, the accuser was put on the layoff list.
