Stuxnet, part II.

Yeah, people may cheer this, but I submit that if we did this it is very, very dangerous and will likely escalate things significantly.

NSA likely is not up to this.
More likely rogue Ukrainian virus writers.

Agreed we’ve been hit many times and the Chinese keep stealing our stuff on a daily basis. But, I just think that if this comes out in the open it just sort of escalates things and will cause people to really focus their anger and attention. It is hard to put toothpaste back in the tube.

More likely it’s a loosely organized bunch of pimply-faced Ukrainian teenagers living in their parents basements.
