I’d bet on foreign agents like the attack on the Ukraine grid.

“Russians? Or American environmentalists?”

Probably both with the bejing Biden getting in on the action. Working hard to destroy America.

Great....gasoline prices are sure to jump overnight and stay there weeks after the problem is fixed.

Probably, but I'd bet some fool clicked on an email attachment (of foreign origin).

Done on purpose and made to be electronically/technologically controlled on purpose to shut down the country remotely, instantly, etc. for gas, electric, etc. That is why all the gas pumps and cars, etc. too have been made electronic, etc. so they will be turned off with a switch to shut the U.S. down instantly, permanently, etc. by domestic and foreign enemies, corporations, etc.

EVERYTHING should be MECHANICAL ONLY, HARDWIRED ONLY, ETC.!!!!!

Gas prices were already rising quickly.

This will now be the excuse to take heat of the administration..... “it was because of the cyberattack and not the green deal and shut down of pipeline construction and exploration”

I love my wood stove and heat a very large house with it - very little electric heat and don’t use propane furnace at all.

Sadly, our envirowhackos have stopped all new permits for wood stoves despite the fact that I live on top of a hill on over 21 acres. I wanted to put a small wood stove in the apartment over my barn to heat it.

Is that a county, or state restriction?

Once identified, whoever did this should get a cruise missile visit.

Why are the control systems for critical infrastructure connected to the Internet in the first place?

Nice, hopefully the pipeline stays shut down for a long time, as that gives people in the Blue States a real chance to live the ‘Green Lifestyle’...not to mention the fact that not burning those fuels will GREATLY extend the life of the planet...so how can they get upset about that either.

Because midlevel to upper management controllers in these companies love the vanity of being able to see and control things from their homes, yachts and vacation villas. Also government also wants real time monitoring access as well. It’s too inconvenient for government bureaucrats and private company CEO’s if these utilities are hard wired and kept off the public inter-net grids.
