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.“

What is nonsense about this scenario is that we have been producing electricity since well before computers, just put in a manual override, I made a living in Industrial Electrical and electronics so I know it can be done with minimal effort.
How stupid, dumb, and ignorant can one be….. Us country folks will band together and defend our family’s land and food….. Wow,,,,,,

The Hollywood leftists elite will come to the rescue of all inner city people. Bringing them food water and they will then entertain them by acting out blazing saddles while the crowds eat the lobster and drink the wine that was so generously brought to them
