You can’t get infected from the Internet if you aren’t connected to the Internet.

“Major Incident” is a designation reserved for any attack that could pose a threat to national security, foreign relations or the US economy or which threatens to undermine public confidence, civil liberties or the health and safety of the American public.

O.K. this can boil down to the "undermine public confidence" category. As in, the government continues to screw up. And they want all our health records and financials in their database, no thanks.

If you type “accomplishments of straight white men” into Google you will break the Internet for sure!

For some good news. The US Marshall’s took out a scumbag in DC yesterday.

It will just say "Did You Mean: accomplishments of Gay Black Women"

I bet it wasn’t Ukraine....................

I have to give the US Marshal’s credit for not trying to cover this up. Most government agencies the very 1st thing they would do with something like this is fire the people who reported it and tried to cover the whole thing up.

[Rappini]

That’s just great, and there was talk of the USMS to replace FBI. Not good.

Listen up, ladies and gentlemen! Our computer has been locked up for ninety minutes. Average wifi speed over uneven towers barring interference is 4 miles per hour and that gives us a radius of... six miles. What I want out of each and every one of you is a hard-target search of every Starbucks, library, donut shop, scone shop, pancake house, whorehouse and doghouse in that area. Checkpoints go up at fifteen miles. Your hacker’s name is Supta Rachmadahi Chan. Go get him.

Wanna bet? An infected flash drive will do just as well.

[ConservativeMind]

A flash drive has nothing to do with the Internet, and it can’t report back to the Internet without an Internet connection.

Try again. Being air-gapped matters, AND you should disallow USB storage devices.

Any system designed by humans can be broken by humans.

Air-gapping Matters.

[Boogieman]

“Being air-gapped matters, AND you should disallow USB storage devices.”

On a system that requires thousands of users to be able to submit and retrieve information from across the country, being air-gapped matters for sure. It means your system can’t actually work.

[Dick Vomer]

gee, now they know how the regular citizens of this country feels. “They” know where you live, what your SSN is and who your family is...and phone number and email address.

Now we’re all equal. neat.
