"What’s with all the cyber attacks in St. Louis?"-bgill

I have no clue 'why' certain locations are so heavily targeted.

However...

Back on July 8th, some lead stories:

• *NYC subway system suffered an atrocious commute, some trains stranded in stations for long periods.
• *Website "The Dissolve" folded today
• *United Airline was forced to ground all of its flights after it's computer system mysteriously stopped working.
• *The NYStock Exchange suspended trading today after its computerized trading system mystreiously stopped working
• *Immediately after, the WSJ website mysteriously stopped working.
• *More than 2,500 people in DC mysteriously lost power

  Thats just some of the headlines...the hacks however also concentrated on the St Louis, MO region at that time.

  Why?

  Some suggested the region has a huge clearing house for data storage and there is a Federal Reserve Bank in St. Louis. ChiComs are probably trying to interfere with global markets to soften their slide, so no one could sell anything anywhere.Another commenter posted: "in the weeks after the OPM hack, the Chinese equity market has collapsed and lost 3.7 trillion dollars - 30% of its value. China blames America and claims it's retaliation for the OPM hack. They have also told Russia that, under the terms of their cybersecurity defense pact, a state of war now exists with the USA."
