I have learned -- as have most FReepers, over a number of painful years -- to discern what Democrats really mean when they speak. I have no doubt as to what was in this clown's thoughts.
Actually ARPANET was strated as a means to have Redundant Units that would survive EMP’s. When I worked at Digital Equipment Company in 1981 a “Tempest” Monitor came into our OEM by mistake. It had about 50 pounds of shielding under the plastic housing. Some “people” came and took it from us.
Good luck getting *that* genie back in the proverbial bottle!
It’s a shame the good people of WV have two of the worst senators.

What a waste of skin and air.
He was actually just windbagging, letting us see how stupid he is and hammering down C-Span ratings. He was trying to make an exaggerated case for cyber security improvements by scaremongering about threats to the national defense and infrastructure as a result of hacking.
He cited millions of attacks a day against the Pentagon, for example. Hell, I personally get hundreds of attacks per day. The only reason I even know about them is that I have a syslog daemon set up to record the log messages my router puts out.
