What would happen under the circumstances of a cyberattack targeted towards America? Would people go Mad Max crazy? In Ted Koppel’s book “Lights Out” he explains that if the power grid were to go down due to cyberattack, it would go down for not only days, but for weeks or even months resulting in millions of people dying due to mass starvation.
Recently, National Security Agency (NSA) Director Admiral Michael Rogers warned listeners at a cyber-security conference that the threat isn’t a matter of “if“ it will happen, but “when.“
He used the example in which hackers in Ukraine used the Black Energy cyber-weapon to knock out the lights on more than 200,000 people across the region.
While speaking at the RSA Conference in San Francisco, he warned the audience that this will not be the “last we are going to see of this.“

The power grid is old, weak, and falling apart. Cyber attacks could wipe it out! I will live off of the land. Plenty to eat if you hunt and fish. Grow your own food in gardens.
Indeed, many Americans in my neck of the woods have generators (I do). Many more are available to buy and most housing complexes have some emergency services they offer. I think there might be a limited loss of life but that’s not what he’s talking about.
I agree!
Now there’s an issue both sides of the aisle can agree about…let’s see if the collective U.S. government braintrust can put aside their childishness long enough to solve ONE problem together.
Just find a way to protect it! Hire the likes of w. Leaks
