President Biden Says Cyberattacks May Trigger A 'Shooting War'

 

Reuters: Biden: If U.S. has 'real shooting war' it could be result of cyber attacks 

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -President Joe Biden on Tuesday warned that if the United States ended up in a "real shooting war" with a "major power" it could be the result of a significant cyber attack on the country, highlighting what Washington sees as growing threats posed by Russia and China. 

Cybersecurity has risen to the top of the agenda for the Biden administration after a series of high-profile attacks on entities such as network management company SolarWinds, the Colonial Pipeline company, meat processing company JBS and software firm Kaseya hurt the U.S. far beyond just the companies hacked. 

Some of the attacks affected fuel and food supplies in parts of the United States.

Update #2: In jab at Putin, Biden warns cyberattacks could cause ‘shooting war’ -- NYPost  

WNU Editor: It will have to be a massive cyber attack (i.e. a complete shut down of financial systems and essential utilities) to warrant such a response.

  2. No, it will not. That is a hybrid war miscalculation. You do not have to complete shutdown the financial, food or energy systems. Shutting down one of them for a whole week will suffice. Xi and Putin had better zip up and stop trying to pork every one or they will be barbecued, evaporated and have nothing to play with.

    If you have to choose between your kids living in America and the old country, you are going to choose you kids and fucking nuke the old country until it is ash.

    Some people maybe on the up and up. They may also have high enough profile the next time they have a mic to bitch slap some people and wake them TFU.

  5. Poetry and Its Conventions: An Anthology Examining Poetic Forms and Themes.

    All that theory, but no actual poems


    What would a person find, if they perused books on poetry for the 30 years before that and make comparisons?

    I believe they have software for it now.

    I NEVER CLAIMED TO BE A POET. FOR YOU TO ASK WHY I HAD NOT WRITTEN AND PUBLISHED POETRY IS SIMILAR TO ME ASKING YOU WHY YOU HAD NEVER BEEN THE CEO OF A HEDGE FUND OR ARE NOT AN ASTRONAUT.

    I AM THOUGH DELIGHTED TO SEE THAT YOU TOOK THE TIME TO SEARCH FOR MY PUBLICATIONS. THERE REALLY IS A LOT MORE THAN YOU FOUND, HOWEVER, BUT THEN THAT WOULD REQUIRE A SCHOLARLY MIND AND THAT IS NOT WHAT YOU HAVE.

    NOW TELL US YOUR REAL NAME AND I WILL DO A SEARCH ON YOU AND YOUR PUBLISHED POETRY

  7. Publish or Perish.

    Somehow you would think someone, who knows the rules and spend so much time in the arena would have produced something.

  8. You really ought not to comment about an area you are fully ignorant of. Do you think I got tenure and made full professor and managed that without writing poetry?
    stay with your bookkeeping field, something perhaps you do know about.

  9. No poetry, just publishing BLM type stuff in 60s and 70s and after that you want what? Respect?

  10. Sir--
    I did not ask for, do not need, do not want your respect. and now I note you are still trying to track me down from yet another published work I had done years ago. Now show us your timeclock card from your job at Dunkin' Donuts

  11. Here is what gets me. So you get a doctorate English not sociology or psychology. So what so you publish? "Racism: A Case Study". Is that the type of book you publish, when you cannot publish in your field? If that is fair game, maybe Martha Stewart should be part of the Top Gun staff and write a book on how to be a fighter ace?

    IMO it was low hanging fruit to publish such a tract. It wasn't groundbreaking and lots of other people were publishing similar works. It was politically safe to publish such a tract.

    I don't appreciate a person, who would publish such screed turn around and call me sexist, bigot, homophobe, when I am in a interracial marriage.
