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.“

Here is an idea. Everyone in Congress and house of representatives that has more than 2 terms in office be retired effective immediately.

Trump doesn’t bow to Iran ,as Ovomit did .
Trump 2020
We as American should move away from the power grid, towards individual Solar, Hydro, and wind! Decentralize!
Really ? I think we should loose that guy and secure our Grid – it can be done !!
The fragility of your ignorance is on display for all to see. You must have been watching liberal news to try and get your false statements straight. How does it feel to be manipulated and handled by the liberal left? They’ve got you totally in a bind.
