They could deem a business vulnerable and shut it down then if so fit. This will not be a good thing and with the idiot elected officials we have they will definitely take any communistic approach they get the chance to take.

The government should do public service announcements warning the public especially the elderly. |

Quoting: JAZZz50 u mean like we did with Bin Laden? took how long and how many lives and we invades 2 countries? that will work well. with that idea we won't b typing on comps long. grid will b attacked too. that's inevitable. is your avatar holding a letter to signal the return to pre-internet communications, or is it a reference to the Ricin attack in Florida years ago, through the mail? it's the news carried from 1 community to the next in the future. DYNAMITE I did the math, for humanitarian reasons, on this one. A US Air Force JDAM GBU-31 only costs us $18,000 USD. Once the terrorists' home or homes are positively located it provides an instant, humane, and cost-effective means of removing the source of the malware attack. Leaving a crater in place of their home, without suffering survivors, and can even be deployed... well, wherever the terrorist, foreign or domestic soon formerly lived. I posted a little more info about this hostaging in Paranoiaaaa's foodie thread. Thread: Food with Attitude! (Page 198) Until your military service has required you neutralize enemy combatants and invaders in the defense of your country, don't presume to tell us that have defended you that you don't support every shot we fired to eliminate that enemy. |

Yep. PCC China doesn't have to fire any missiles or send any of its troopers overseas in order to take over America. The US's own MAGA-hating "progressive" corruptcracy will do that for them. |
