Today you can download 1 megabyte in a flash but 4 terabytes behind a firewall, without anyone noticing? That to me is unbelievable. Some people really need to be made accountable for this.

"the attacks appear to have originated in China"

4 Terabytes would take 37 DAYS to download at 10Mbit (higher than MOST broadband connection, MAXED OUT)

Even at 100Mbit FULL ETHERNET speed, it would take 3.7 DAYS.

I CANNOT BELIEVE that the Pentagon's SECURITY PEOPLE would not notice this traffic spike TO CHINA.

I have to believe there are other networks available outside the Internet. Risking national secrets on what amounts to a modern party line is ridiculous.
