And when this happens in the USA the politicians will immediately jump into action, blaming each other, going on talk shows, convening committees, demanding investigations, etc., etc.

In other words, doing SQUAT!

If politicians (both national and at state level) had brain cells instead of goat turds, they would already have fortified our power grid.

Thank God I have redundant power back ups!

This is excellent news.

The Goobermint mandated centralized command-and-control utilities model collapses under the weight of it's own internal corruption.

People will be forced to relearn the habits of self-reliant self sufficiency.

Best regards,

This is not new:

Local sites potential targets for cyberterror

Attackers could use computers to disrupt various utilities

Monday, September 2, 2002

From nuclear plants to gas pipelines to electric utilities, Western Washington contains several “critical infrastructure” facilities that terrorists might target — through their computers.

Two recent incidents have heightened concern about cyberterror attacks, and have raised new questions about the capabilities of al-Qaida and other terror groups.

Late last year, FBI agents in San Francisco discovered that sophisticated hackers, working from the Middle East, had intruded into sites detailing Bay Area emergency telephone service, electrical generation and transmission, and the operations of nuclear power plants.

And last month, federal officials said they detected a series of small electronic attacks against U.S. Internet providers, including some in Seattle. The initial government alert cited Italian authorities who warned that “wide-scale hacker attacks” were planned against U.S. sites.

Criminals have been able to hack into computer systems via the Internet and cut power to several cities, a U.S. Central Intelligence Agency analyst said this week.

Do that on Election Day in the big cities, hackers. The voters will thank you.
